Advanced Microcomputer Systems had annual sales of $31,979,000 with total variable costs of $20,934,000 and total fixed costs of $6,211,000.
a. What is the company's contribution rate?
b. What annual revenue is required to break even?
c. In the following year, a competitor dealt a severe blow to sales and total revenues dropped to $15,000,000. Calculate the net income.
Answer of Part a:
Contribution Margin = Sales – Variable Cost
Contribution Margin = $31,979,000 - $20,934,000
Contribution Margin = $11,045,000
Contribution Margin rate = Contribution Margin / Sales
*100
Contribution Margin rate = $11,045,000 / $31,979,000 * 100
Contribution Margin rate = 34.54%
Answer of Part b:
Break Even Point in Dollars = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin
rate
Break Even Point in Dollars = $6,211,000 / 0.3454
Break Even Point in Dollars = $17,982,049.80
Answer of Part c:
Net Income = Sales * Contribution Margi Ratio – Fixed Cost
Net Income = $15,000,000 * 34.54% - $6,211,000
Net Income = $5,181,000 - $6,211,000
Net Loss = -$1,030,000
