Homework Answers

Answer #1

Ans:

The Breakeven point is (c) ie$ 729027

Sales= 1500000*110%= (A) $1650000

Less : Variable overhead (B)

Diirect Material $250000*112% =$280000

Direct Labour $150000*112%= $168000

Variable overhead $75000*112%= $84000

Variable Selling & admin. Exp $200000*112%=$224000

Total Variable Overhead =756000

Contribution(c)=A-B =894000

PV Ratio= Contribution/Sales*100

= 894000/1650000*100

=54.181818181

Break even point sales= Fixed cost / P/v Ratio

=395000/54.181818181*100

=$729027
