The Noble Company manufactures two products. Information about the two products is as follows:
Product A | Product B | |
Selling price per unit | $80 | $30 |
Variable costs per unit | 45 | 15 |
Contribution margin per unit | $35 | $15 |
The company expects the fixed costs to be $189,000. The firm expects 60% of its sales (in units) to be of Product A (a sales mix of 3:2).
Required:
A. Calculate the contribution margin per
package.
$
B. Determine the break-even point in units for Product A and Product B.
Product A | units |
Product B | units |
C. Determine the level of sales (in dollars) necessary to generate an operating income of $135,000.
A. contribution margin per package = 35*60%+15*40% = $27
B. break-even point in units = 189000/27 = 7000 units
break-even point in units for Product A = 7000*60% = 4200 units
break-even point in units for Product b = 7000*40% = 2800 units
C. Break-even point in units for target profit = (189000+135000)/27 = 12000 units
break-even point in units for Product A = 12000*60% = 7200 units
break-even point in units for Product b = 12000*40% = 4800 units
level of sales (in dollars) = 7200*80+4800*30 = $720000
