Selling price of ball = $2842000/58000 balls = $49
1-a)
Contribution margin ratio
= Contribution / sales * 100
= $852600/$2842000*100
= 30%
Break even = fixed cost / contribution ratio
= $705600/30%
= $2352000
Break even in balls = $2352000/$49 = 48000 units
1-b)
Degree of Operating leverage = contribution/ operating income
= $852600/$147000
= 5.8
2 -
New variable cost = $34.3 + $4.90 = $39.20
contribution per unit = $49 - $39.20 = $9.80
New contribution ratio = $9.80/$49 = 20%
New break even = $705600/$9.80 = 72000 units
3. Required Operating profit = $147000
Fixed cost = $705600
Required contribution = $852600
Units to be sold = $852600/$9.80 = 87000 units
4. Last year CM ratio = 30%
For this contribution ratio variable cost should be 70%
New variable cost is $39.20
So new selling price = $39.20/70% = $56
Rise in selling price = $56 - $49 = $7
5. New variable cost = $34.3 - 30% = $24.01
New fixed cost = $705600 + 86% = $1312416
New contribution = $49 - $24.01 = $24.99
New contribution ratio = $24.99/$49 = 51%
New break even units = $1312416/$24.99 = 52518 units
