2. An audio equipment manufacturer produced and sold 725 sound
systems and made a net income of $50, 000 last year, with a total
revenue of $1, 015, 000. The manufacturer's break-even volume is
600 units.
a. Calculate the selling price of each sound system.
b. Calculate the variable costs for each sound system.
c. Calculate the fixed costs per year.
Khaling Company sold 27,150 units last year at $15.60 each. Variable cost was $11.40, and total fixed cost was $118,020.
Required:
1.
Prepare an income statement for Khaling for last year.
2.
Calculate the break-even point in units.
3.
Calculate the units that Khaling must sell to earn operating income of $10,080 this year.
During the Year the total marbles sold by AMP Ltd. are 6,000 and Profit at this level of Sales is $
20,000. The Margin of Safety Sales is $ 60,000. The total Fixed Expenses for the year is one-third of
the year's Break Even Sales. Find out the Total Variable Cost and Variable Cost per unit if the Selling
Price is $ 30.00 per marble.
Variable Cost = $ 120,000 ; Variable Cost per unit = $ 20.00
Variable Cost = $ 114,000 ; Variable Cost per unit = $ 19.00
Variable Cost = $ 111,000 ; Variable Cost per unit = $ 18.50
O Variable Cost = $ 117,000 ; Variable Cost per unit = $ 19.50
