What is the annual profit or loss atrributable to the center?

At what volume of output des the center break even?

What will be the profit or loss at 70%, 80%, and 90% of capacity on the basis of constant income per unit and constant variable cost per unit? (#29, pg 238)

Explanation / Answer

the fixed cost= $192,000

the production= 65%(650,000)= 422,500 units

the variable cost= 422,500*$0.38= $160,550

the total cost= 160550+192,000= $352,550

here the profit is= 416000-352,550= $63450

to calculate break even we require selling price per unit. it is not proviede in the problem.
