Answer #1

Answer is $310,000

Selling Price per pack = $18.00
Variable Cost per pack = $8.00
Fixed Costs = $200,000
Sales Volume = 51,000

Contribution Margin per pack = Selling Price per pack - Variable Cost per pack
Contribution Margin per pack = $18.00 - $8.00
Contribution Margin per pack = $10.00

Pretax Profit = Contribution Margin per pack * Sales Volume - Fixed Costs
Pretax Profit = $10.00 * 51,000 - $200,000
Pretax Profit = $510,000 - $200,000
Pretax Profit = $310,000
