A summary report of these estimates is as follows: x Estimated Estimated Variable Cost x Fixed Cost (per unit sold) __________________________________________________________ Production costs: Direct materials $0 $18.00 Direct labor 0 12.00 Factory overhead 318,000 9.00 Selling expenses: Sales salaries and commissions 65,500 4.00 Advertising 22,500 0.00 Travel 5,000 0.00 Miscellaneous selling expense 5,500 3.50 Administrative expenses: Office and officers

2.    Contribution Margin Ratio =

=2 000 000 –(20000 x50 ) /2 000 000= 1 000 000/ 2 000 000=50%   

       Contribution Margin Ratio = = = 50%

=====================

3.    Break-Even Sales (units) =

Fixed costs/unitscontribution margin= 5000 000/100-50 =10 000 units

       Break-Even Sales (dollars) = 10,000 units × $100 per unit = $1,000,000

5.    Margin of safety:

        In dollars:

              Expected sales (20,000 units × $100)...........................................    $ 2,000,000

              Break-even point (10,000 units × $100)........................................       1,000,000

              Margin of safety...................................................................    $ 1,000,000

              As a percentage of sales:

=sales-sales at breakeven pint/sales= 1 000 000/2 000 000=50%

       Margin of Safety = = 50%

===================

Contribution margin/ income from operation = (20000- 50 )/500 000=2.0
