Answer #1

Contribution margin=Sales-Variable costs

=(100-60)=40%

At breakeven point;Contribution margin=Fixed cost=($690,000*0.4)=$276000

Hence for target profits;Target Contribution margin=Target profits+Fixed costs

=(10,000+276,000)=$286,000

Hence target sales=$286,000/Contribution margin ratio

=$286,000/0.4

=$715,000
