Sales Mix
For Product A: SP/u = $10; VC/u = $7, budget sales (units) 6,000
For Product B: SP/u = $18; VC/u = $14, budget sales (units) 18,000
Total Fixed costs = $75,000
Find BEP in $ and units for A and B
Total budgeted sales = Budgeted sales for Product A + Budgeted sales for Product B = 6,000+18,000 = 24,000 units
Product A | Product B | |
Sales mix percentage | 6,000÷24,000×100 = 25% | 18,000÷24,000×100 = 75% |
Weighted average Contribution margin per unit = 0.75+3 = $3.75
Break even point in unit of sales mix = Fixed cost ÷ Weighted average Contribution margin per unit = 75,000÷3.75 = 20,000 units
Product A | Product B | |
Sales mix percentage | 25% | 75% |
× Total break even units | 20,000 | 20,000 |
Break even units | 5,000 units | 15,000 units |
Product A | Product B | |
Break even units | 5,000 units | 15,000 units |
× Selling price per unit | $10 | $18 |
Break even point in dollars | $50,000 | $270,000 |
