Answer #1

At break even point, there is no profit or no loss. At this point contribution margin is equal to the fixed cost.

Sales Revenue = Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio

Contribution margin ratio = 100% - variable cost ratio

= 100% - 60%

= 40%

Sales Revenue = $500,000 / 40%

= $1,250,000
