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

$9,600 / (($20 x 70%) + ($60 x 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 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 company is currently producing less than 1,000 units of product (monitors) per month. They must add an additional supervisor and other fixed costs at a total of $30,000 per month if more than 1,000 monitors are produced per month. Calculate the break-even in units given the following information and assuming that the company plans to produce more than 1,000 monitors. Selling price per unit $400 Variable cost per unit $275 Fixed cost for 1,000 units $100,000

($100,000 + $30,000) / ($400 - $275) = 1,040 units

A toy company sells two models of model cars: standard and deluxe. History shows that 80% of sales are standard cars and 20% are deluxe cars. Given the following information, calculate break-even sales. Standard sales price per unit $25 Deluxe sales price per unit $50 Weighted-average contribution margin per unit $15 Fixed costs $56,000

$25 x 80% = 20 $50 x 20% = 10 $56,000 / ($15 / $30) = $112,000

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

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

Given the following information, calculate the margin of safety percentage: Actual sales $100,000 Contribution margin ratio 0.60 Fixed costs $30,000

(100,000 - (30,000 / 0.6)) / 100,000 = 50%

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.

(15,000 + (20,000 / ( 1 - 0.2))) / 50 = (15,000 + 25,000) / 50 = 800 units

Target volume (units) =

(fixed costs + target profit) / contribution margin per unit

Target volume (sales dollars)

(fixed costs + target profit) / contribution margin ratio

Given the following information, calculate target volume (in sales dollars): Sales price per unit $30 Variable cost per unit $18 Target profit $8,000 Fixed costs $2,000

(fixed costs + target profit) / contribution margin ratio 2,000 + 8,000 / 0.4 = $25,000

Given the following information, calculate the break-even volume (in units): Selling price per unit $14 Variable cost per unit $10 Fixed costs $1,000

1,000 / (14 - 10) = 250 units

A toy company sells two models of model cars; standard and deluxe. History shows that 80% of sales are standard cars and 20% are deluxe cars. Given the following information, calculate the break-even sales dollars: Weighted average revenue $20 Fixed costs $5,000 Weighted average contribution margin per unit $8

5,000 / ($8 / 20%) = $12,500

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. Calculate the break-even point in units per month for this product.

Break-even without additional cost = $52,500 ÷ $750 = 70 units Profit = ($750 × 70) - ($52,500 + $7,500) = ($7,500) ($52,500 + $7,500) ÷ $750 = 80

A telephone company sells two models of phones; standard and deluxe. For every 500 standard phones sold, the company sells 200 deluxe phones. Calculate the break-even point in packages using the fixed product mix method. Standard contribution per unit $20 Deluxe contribution margin per unit $60 Total fixed costs $55,000

Contribution margin = (500 × $20) + (200 × $60) = 22,000. $55,000 ÷ 22,000 = 2.5 packages
