Calculation of Contribution per unit and Breakeven Sales
Selling price per Unit | $60 |
Total Variable Cost per unit | $34 |
Contribution per unit | $26 |
Total Fixed Cost | $620,000 |
Break Even Sales ($620,000/$26) | 23,846 Units |
a. Operating Profit when 70,000 Units are sold
Units Sold | 70,000 |
Break Even Sales | 23,846 |
Difference | 46,154 |
Commission @$1.30 per Unit (46,154 * $1.30) | $60,000 |
Contribution when 70,000 units sold (70,000*$26) | $1,820,000 |
Total Fixed Cost before sales commission | $620,000 |
Sales Commission |
$60,000 |
Total Fixed Cost | $680,000 |
Operating Profit ($1,820,000 - $680,000) | $1,140,000 |
b.Calculate the number of units sold where the operating profit under (a)a fixed salary plan and (b) a lower fixed salary and commission plan (for salespeople only) would be equal.
Let the quantity sold be Q
For indifference, profits under both plans must be equal
Profits = Quantity x (Selling price - Unit variable cost) - Fixed costs
Q x $(60 - 34) - $620,000 = Q x $(60 - 29.5) - ($620,000 + $80,000)
Q* $ 26 - $620,000 = Q* $ 30.5 - $680,000
Q * $ 4.5 = $ 60,000
Q = $60,000 / $4.5 = 13,333 Units
C.Calculate the operating profit or loss under each plan in question 7 (above) at a sales level of (a) 50,000 units and (b) 60,000 units.
Operating Profit at 50,000 Units
Profits = Quantity x (Selling price - Unit variable cost) - Fixed costs
Let the quantity sold be Q
Profits = 50,000 X ($60 -$34) - $620,000
Profit = $1,300,000 - $620,000
Profit = $680,000
Operating Profit at 60,000 Units
Profits = Quantity x (Selling price - Unit variable cost) - Fixed costs
Let the quantity sold be Q
Profits = 60,000 X ($60 -$34) - $620,000
Profit = $1,560,000 - $620,000
Profit = $940,000
D.Suppose the target operating profit is $368,000. How many units must be sold to reach the target under (a) the fixed salary plan and (b) the lower fixed salary and commission plan?
a. Under Fixed Salary Plan
Profits = Quantity x (Selling price - Unit variable cost) - Fixed costs
Let the quantity sold be Q
$368,000 = Q*($60 - $34) - $620,000
Q*$26 = $988,000
Q = $988,000/$26 = 38,000 Units
b.The lower fixed salary and commission plan
Profits = Quantity x (Selling price - Unit variable cost) - (Fixed costs + Commission)
Let the quantity sold be Q
$368,000 = Q*($60 -$29.5) - ($620,000 + $60,000)
$368,000 = Q*$30.5 -$680,000
Q = $1,048,000/$ 30.5 = 34,361 Units
