Gilley Inc. sells a single product. Gilley's most recent income statement is given below:
Sales (Sold 4,000 units) $120,000
Variable costs: Variable manufacturing costs (48,000) Variable selling and general costs (20,000) Contribution margin 52,000 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing costs (30,000) Fixed selling and general costs (10,000) Operating income $12,000
How many units must be sold to achieve net income (after tax) of $15,000? Assume income tax rate of 40%. Compute the new "break-even point" in units if fixed manufacturing costs are increased by 10,000, and a target operating income is $18,000. (SHOW WORK)
Answer to Q1
Units to be sold for NEt income of $15,000 after tax, tax rate is 40% means before tax income should be $15,000/0.60 ; $25,000
Units sold = Fixed cost + Desired profit / CM per unit
= ($30,000+$10,000+$25,000)/$52,000/4000 ; 5,000 units
Answer to Q2
New Break Even point ; Fixed cost + Desired profit / CM per unit
; $30,000+10,000+10,000 / $13 ; 3846 Units
Will not ocnisdered the Target income as breakeven point assume there is no profit in business, so only fixed cost increase in above calculation is considered.
