Explanation / Answer

11.A. To find out Margin of safety sales, first we should find out BEP Sales.

BEP sales=Fixed cost ÷Pv ratio

PV Ratio = contribution ÷sales×100

=9,200÷21,800×100=42.2%

BEP Sales= Fixed cost ÷Pv ratio

=7,452÷42.2%=17,659(rounded off)

Margin of safety

in dollars = Actual sales - BEP sales

=21,800-17,659=$4,141

11.B.Margin of safety percentage=Mos sales÷Actual sales ×100=$4,141÷21,800×100=18.9954%.

12. Degree of operating leverage= contribution margin ÷ operating income

= 9,200÷1,748=5.263.

13.Here the operating leverage is 5.263 which means , a 10 percent increase in sales will result in 52.63% increase in income.

Likewise if the sales are increased by 5%, it will result in 26.315% increase in income.

14. The Degree of operating leverage at this situation will be

Contribution margin÷ Net operating income

=14,348÷1,748= 8.208

15. At this given situation, using the new operating leverage, the estimated percent increase in net operating income at 5% increase in sales will be 41.04% since 1% increase increase in sales will result in 8.208% increase in operating income.
