1. $4.5

2. 45%

3. 55%

4. $4.50

5. $1,800

6. $3,150

7. $1,750

8. 500 units

9.$5,000

10. 2,300 units

11. $5,000

12. 2

13. 1.5%

Explanation:

1. Contribution margin per unit = Unit sales price - Variable cost per unit

• $10 - $5.5 = $4.5

2. Contribution margin ratio = (sales - variable expense) / Sales

• ($10,000 - $5,500) / $10,000

• $4,500/$10,000

•45%

3.Variable expense ratio = variable cost per unit / Sales per unit

•$5.5/$10 = 55%

4. Net operating income @1,000 - Net operating income @1,001

•@1,000 units

Sales (1,000 x 10) $10,000

Variable expense (1,000 x 5.5) $5,500

Contribution margin $4,500

Less: Fixed Cost $2,250

Net operating income $2,250

•@1,001 units

Sales (1,001 x 10) $10,010

Variable expense (1,001 x 5.5) $5,505.50

Contribution margin $4,504.50

Less: Fixed cost $2,250

Net operating income 2,254.50

Therefore, $2,254.50 - $2,250 = $4.50

5. Sales (900 x 10 ) $9,000

Variable expense (900 x 5.5) $4,950

Contribution margin $ 4,050

Less: Fixed cost $2,250

Total net operating income $1,800

6. Sales (900 x 11.50) $10,350

Variable cost (900 x 5.50) $4,950

Contribution margin $5,400

Less: Fixed cost $2,250

Net operating income $3,150

7. Sales (1,250 x 10) $12,500

Variable cost (1,250 x 6) $7,500

Contribution margin $5,000

Less: Fixed cost (2,250 + 1,000) $3,250

Net operating income $1,750

8. Break-even point in unit sales

BEP =Total fixed cost / (sale per unit - variable cost)

BEP = $2,250 / (10-5.5)

BEP = $2,250/$4.5

BEP = 500 units

9.Break-even point in dollar sales

BES = Total fixed expense/contribution margin ratio

BES = $2,250/([10,000-5,500]/10,000)

BES = $2,250/0.45

BES = $5,000

10. Let’s begin with the desired net operating income.

•$8,100 + Fixed cost = Contribution margin / (Sales per unit - Variable cost)

•$8,109 + $2,250 = $10,350/(10-5.50)

•$10,350/4.50

•2,300 units

11.Margin of safety = Projected sales - Break-even sales

MOS = $10,000(1,000 x 10) - $5,000 (as computed above #9)

MOS = $5,000

12. Degree of Operating leverage

DoL = (Sales-Variable cost) / (Sales - Variable cost - Fixed cost)

DoL = ($10,000 - 5,500) / ($10,000 - 5,500 - 2,250)

DoL = $4,500/$2,250

DoL = 2

13. 3% / 2 = 1.5%

• DoL simply signifies how many times the operating profit increase or decrease in relation to sales.
