Answer:-a)- Sales mix percentage -Sprinklers = (443952 units/1849800 units)*100 =24%
Valves= (1368852 units/1849800 units)*100 =74%
Controllers= (36996 units/$1849800 units)*100 =2%
Contribution margin per unit= Selling price per unit- Variable cost per unit
Sprinklers = $27 per unit-$14 per unit-$1 per unit =$12 per unit
Values = $11 per unit-$8 per unit-$1 per unit =$2 per unit
Controllers = $43 per unit-$30 per unit-$3 per unit =$10 per unit
b)-Weighted average contribution margin ratio =Contribution margin ratio* Sales mix percentage
= ($12 per unit*24%)+($2 per unit*74%)+($10 per unit*2%)
= $2.88 per unit+$1.48 per unit+$0.20 per unit
= $4.56 per unit
c)- Company’s Break even point in units= Fixed costs/ Weighted average contribution margin ratio
= $1691216/$4.56 per unit
= 370881 units
Total break even point in units=
Sprinklers = 370881 units*24 % =89011 units
Values = 370881 units*74 % =274452 units
Controllers = 370881 units*2% =7418 units
