Hau Lee Furniture, Inc., spends 55% of its sales dollars in the supply chain and finds its current profit of $5,000 inadequate.

Current Situation | |
Sales | $100,000 |
Cost of Material | $55,000 (55%) |
Production Costs | $25,000 (25%) |
Fixed Costs | $15,000 (15%) |
Profit | %5,000 (5%) |
Please help with part B.
Part B:
Assuming that all other costs would be a fixed proprtion of sales, except fixed cost, we can rewrite the statement as:
Current Situation | Proposed | |
Sales | 1,00,000 | 125000 |
Cost of Material | 55,000 | 68750 (55%) |
Production Costs | 25,000 | 31250 (25%) |
Fixed Costs | 15,000 | 15000 (12%) |
Profit | 5,000 | 10,000 |
Therefore the ans would be,
An increase of 25% in sales is required to yield a profit of $10,000, for a new level of sales of $ 125,000.
