Calculate breakeven point in units using weighted average contribution per unit and show the proof for your answer
Product B | Product C | Product D | |
Selling Price | 1800 | 1400 | 1000 |
Variable Price | 1200 | 1000 | 200 |
Contribution Margin | 600 | 400 | 800 |
Sales Ratio | 2 | 2 | 1 |
Weighted Average Contribution Margin = [(2*600)+(2*400)+(1*800)] / 5 = 560
Total Fixed Cost | 5600000 |
Combined Breakeven Point (Units) = 5600000 / 560 = 10000
