How much is Cobb’s breakeven point in dollars?
A) $400,000
B) $300,000
C) $420,000
D)$544,000
computation of breakeven point
breakeven point = TFE / (WS - WV)
TFE = Total Fixed Expenses
WS = Weighted average selling price = (Sale price of product A × Sales percentage of product A) + (Sale price of product B × Sale percentage of product B) + ...
WV = Weighted average variable cost per unit = (Variable expenses of product A × Sales percentage of product A) + (Variable expenses of product B × Variable expenses of product B) +...
Breakeven point = $300,000/ ($272-$122) = $300,000/ $150 = 2,000 units
* WS = $120*60% + $500*40% = $72+$200 = $272
** WV = $70*60% + $200*40% = $42+$80 = $122
Computation of breakeven point in Dollars
The company will have to sell 2,000 units to break-even. Now compute the number of units of each product to be sold:
product y = 2,000*60% = 1,200
product z = 2,000*40% = 800
As the number of units of each individual product to be sold have been computed, now compute the break even point in dollars as follows
product y = 1,200*$120 = $144,000
product z = 800*$500 = $400,000
breakeven point in dollars = $544,000 (Option d)

number 6 Done The products often have different unit variable costs. Thus, the total profit and the breakeven point depend on the proportions in which the products are sold. Sales mix is the relative contribution of sales among various products sold by a firm. Assume that the sales of Jordan, Inc, for a typical year are as follows Units Sold Sales Mix 18,000 20 Total Assume the following unit selling prices and unit variable costs Product Selling Price per UiVariable...
