x= fixed costs+ 7,500/ unit contribution margin 6,000/750 = 80

A company currently spends $52,500 per month on fixed costs and produces a product with a contribution margin per unit of $750. The production process involves an engraving machine that can only finish 50 units per month. The company owns one engraving machine. For each additional 50 units, another machine must be rented at a cost of $7,500 per month.The break-even point per month for this product is how many units?

15,000 + [20,000/(1-.2)/ 50 = 800

A company has a unit contribution margin of $50, fixed costs of $15,000 and a target profit of $20,000 after-tax. If the tax rate is 20% the company must sell _____ units in order to earn the target profit.

Unit Contribution Margin = $50 Fixed cost = $15,000 Profit after-tax = $20,000 Tax rate = 20% Profit before tax = $20,000 * 100 / (100 - 20) Profit before tax = $25,000 Minimum number of units required to sell to earned desired profit before tax of $25,000 is = (Fixed cost + Desired profit before tax) / Contribution Margin per unit = ($15,000 + $25,000) / $50 per unit = 800 units

A company has a unit contribution margin of $50, fixed costs of $15,000 and a target profit of $20,000 after-tax. If the tax rate is 20% the company must sell _____ units in order to earn the target profit.

fixed

A company that is capital intensive has a cost structure with a high proportion of _____ costs

$9,600 ÷ (($20 × 70%) + ($60 × 30%)) = 300 units

A telephone company sells two models of phones; standard and deluxe. History shows that 70% of sales are standard phones and 30% are deluxe phones. Given the following information, calculate the break-even units for the company: Standard contribution margin per unit $20 Deluxe contribution margin per unit $60 Total Fixed costs $9,600

$9,600 ÷ (($20 × 70%) + ($60 × 30%)) = 300 units

A telephone company sells two models of phones; standard and deluxe. History shows that 70% of sales are standard phones and 30% are deluxe phones. Given the following information, calculate the break-even units for the company: Standard contribution margin per unit $20 Deluxe contribution margin per unit $60 Total Fixed costs $9,600

$9,600 ÷ (($20 × 70%) + ($60 × 30%)) x 70% = 210 units

A telephone company sells two models of phones; standard and deluxe. History shows that 70% of sales are standard phones and 30% are deluxe phones. Given the following information, calculate the break-even units for the standard phones: Standard contribution margin per unit $20 Deluxe contribution margin per unit $60 Total Fixed costs $9,600

($20 x 80%) + ($60 x 20%) = $28

A telephone company sells two models of phones; standard and deluxe. History shows that 80% of sales are standard phones and 20% are deluxe phones. Given the following information, calculate the weighted average contribution margin per unit: Standard's contribution margin per unit $20 Deluxe's contribution margin per unit $60

Given the following information, calculate profit: Selling price per unit $150.00 Variable cost per unit $120.00 Fixed costs $1,000 Number of units 100

Fixed + [Target profit after tax /(1-tax rate)] / Contribution Margin Ratio = 2000+ (4500/(1-.25))/.40 = 20,000

Given the following information, calculate the sales dollars needed to achieve the target profit. Target profit after tax $4,500 Fixed costs $2,000 Contribution margin ratio 40% Tax rate 25%

the excess of projected or actual sales over the break-even volume expressed as a percentage of the actual volume

Margin of Safety Percentage
