Answer #1

BREAK-EVEN POINTS:

UNIT SALES = Fixed Costs ÷ (Sales price per unit – Variable costs per unit)

= 90000 / 0.90

= 100,000 units.

TOTAL SALES DOLLARS = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution Margin.​

= 90000 / (100,000 x 0.90)

= $1

(B) IF SALES PRICE INCREASED BY 8%

Current sales price = $2 per unit

Increase (@8%) = $0.16

New sales price = $2.16 per unit.

SALES 2,16,000
Variable costs (1,10,000)
Fixed Costs (90,000)
PROFIT 16,000

________________________________________________________________________________

(C) INCREASE IN SALES VOLUME BY 10%

Old sale volume = 100,000 units

Increase (@10%) = 10,000 units

New sales volume = 110,000 units.

SALES 2,20,000
Variable costs 1,21,000
Fixed Costs 90,000
PROFIT 9,000

________________________________________________________________________________

(D) INCREASE IN SALES PRICE @8% & SALES VOLUME @10% & DECREASE IN FIXED COSTS @5%.

New sales price = $2.16 per unit.

New sales volume = 110,000 units.

New fixed costs = $85,500

SALES 2,37,600
Variable costs 1,21,000
Fixed Costs 85,500
PROFIT 31,100
