Question

..ooo AT&T; 10:03 AM cunyprod.blackboard.com 1. Calculate the breakeven sales level and the Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) if current Sales- $910,000; Total Variable Cost = $210,000; and Fixed Cost- $500,000. [S650,000; 3.5] 2. Based on the following information, calculate the breakeven level of sales (S*), Degree of Operation Leverage, Degree of Financial Leverage, and Degree of Combined Leverage. Quantity variable cost lunit Price/unit 40000 3.00 $ 53.00 Sales Variable Cost Fixed Cost EBIT $2,120,000.00 120,000.00 $1,000,000.00 1,000,000.00 Interest EBT Tax (40%) Net Income $ 600,000.00 $400,000.00 $ 160,000.00 240,000.00 Outstanding Shares 1,000,000 E.P.S 0.24 DEBT.15 $4,000,000.00 EQUITY (PAR= $1) $1,000,000.00

Explanation / Answer

1 )

contribution margin ratio = Contribution /sales

                                            = 700,000 / 910,000

                                           = .7692

Break even point =Fixed cost /CM ratio

                                  = 500,000 / .7692

                                   = $ 650,026 (approx 650,000)

Degree of operating leverage = Contribution /net income

                                                   = 700,000 / 200,000

                                                  = 3.50

2) Contirbution margin ratio = (53-3)/53 = 50 / 53

                                                   = .9434

Break even point = Fixed cost / CM ratio

                              = 1,000,000 / .9434

                               = $ 1,059,995.76   (approx - 1,060,000)

2)Degree of operating leverage = Q(P-V) / Q(P-V)-F

                                                       = 40000(53 -3 ) /[ 40000(53-3) -1,000,000 ]

                                                        = 40000 *50 / [40000*50 -1,000,000]

                                                     = 2,000,000 / [2,000,000- 1,000,000]

                                                  = 2,000,000 /1,000,000

                                                 = 2

Degree of financial leverga = EBIT /EBIT-I

                                            = 1,000,000 / (1,000,000 - 600,000)

                                         = 1,000,000 / 400,000

                                           = 2.5

Degree of combined leverage =DOL *DFL

                                                    = 2*2.5

                                                    = 5
