Sheet1

number of units produced per month 20,000
Unit variable cost $7+$11+$6+$2=$26
total cost of production per unit $34
fixed cost total cost of production - unit variable cost * number of units = $10
total fixed cost fixed overhead + fixed marketing cost = $14
Contribution Margin per Unit = Sales Price – Variable Cost per Unit
contribution margin per Unit = $50 - $ 26 = $ 24

Brrak-even point in units = total fixed cost /contribution margin per unit
break-even point in units = $280,000/$ 24
beak-even point per unit = 11666.67
D)
Break-even point in sales dollars = total fixed cost / contribution margin ratio
contribution margin ratio= (sales-variable cost) / sales
contribution margin ratio = $ 480000/$1000000
contribuition margin ratio = 48%
break-even point in sales dollars = $280,000/ 0.48
break-even point in sales dollars = $ 583,333.333

Break Even point= Total Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit
Contribution Margin ratio= per unit= Sales price -Variable cost per Unit
Contribution Margin ratio= per unit= $70-$41=$29
Break Even Point in Units=$358,000/$29=12,344.83
Break Even Points in units=12,344.83
Break-even point in sales dollars = total fixed cost / contribution margin ratio

the company is better off producing backpacks with aluminium frame since the operatinmg income for backpacks with aluminium frames is higher ($280,000) than without the aluminum frames ($250,000)

contribution Margin income statement
items price total
sales $50*20,000 $1,000,000
less: variable cost $19*20,000 + $98,000 $478,000
contribution margin $522,000
less: fixed cost $14*20,000 + $25,000 $305,000
operating income $217,000
B)
break-even point I units = total fixed point/ contribution margin per unit
contribution margin per unit = sales price -variable costs per unit
contribution margin per unit = $50 -$26 = $24
break-even point in units =$305,000/ $24
break-even point in units = 12, 708.33
break-even point in sales dollars = total fixed cost/contribution margin ratio
contribution margin ratio= (sales-variable cost) / sales
contribution margin ratio= ($1000000 - $478,000)/ $1000000
contribution margin ratio= 52.2%
break-even point in sales dollars = $305,000/ 0.522
break-even point in sales dollars = $584,291.1877

Hello, I am writing to you concerning the changes that your company is likely to face by changing the type of raw materials used in the production of goods. I have noted that whenever the company changes the type of raw materials used, there is a lot of expenses that are incurred in the process. The company suffers additional costs when they decide to change the raw materials. from the contribution income statement, the number of sales were reorded to be high whereas fixed costs saw an increase by $25,000. one advantsge of using a different raw material is that it can lead to more sales. i realise that there was a reduction in sales whenever, the variable material cost were reduced. the operational income of the company was found to be $217,000 per month which is lower. moreover the change of of suppliers can lead to operational complications.
