intends on adding a new product line. the contribution margin ratio for the new product is 0.2. they have a target operating income of $60,000, and targeted sales volume in dollars is $480,000. then total fixed costs must be: g

The total fixed costs must be:

$36,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Contribution margin ratio for the new product = 0.2

Target operating income = $60,000

Targeted sales volume in dollars = $480,000

Fixed costs = targeted sales volume in dollars multiplied by contribution margin ratio, minus target operating income

Fixed costs = ($480,000 * 0.2) - $60,000 = $36,000

b) The focus should be on the break-even formula for dollar sales with a target profit.  When the formula is reversed, the fixed costs can be calculated as shown above.
