Basic | Deluxe | ||
Cruise | Cruise | ||
Selling price per passenger $ | 125 | 250 | |
Variable cost | 65 | 140 | |
Contribution margin per passenger $ | 60 | 110 | |
Sales Mix (3 : 1) | 3 | 1 | 4 |
Total contribution | 180 | 110 | 290 |
Weighted average contribution per passenger ($290/4) | 72.50 |
Number of cruises sold = (Fixed costs + Operating income)/ Weighted average contribution margin per passenger = ($534600 + $45675)/$72.50 = $580275/$72.50 = 8003.79 = 8004 cruises
Basic cruises = 8004 x 3/4 = 6003
Deluxe cruises = 8004 x 1/4 = 2001
