Lake Stevens Marina has estimated that fixed costs per month are $350,000 and variable cost per dollar of sales is $0.30.
a.
Sale = $1
Variable cost = $0.30
Contribution margin = $0.70
Contribution margin ration = (0.7/1)*100 = 70%
Break even point = Fixed cost/ contribution margin ratio
Break even point = 350,000/70%
Break even point = $500,000
a.
Estimated profit = $70,000
Fixed cost = 350,000
Contribution = 350,000+70,000 = $420,000
Sales = Contribution / Contribution margin ratio
Required sales = 420,000/70%
Required sales = $600,000
a.
Anticipated sale = 1,000,000
Contribution margin= 1,000,000*70% = 700,000
Expected level of profit = Contribution - Fixed cost
Expected level of profit = 700,000-350,000
Expected level of profit = $350,000
