Question:
ABC Pty Ltd manufactures a single product in a factory that is capable of producing 80,000 units per year. A budgeted income statement for the current year is shown below:
Required:
1) Calculate the contribution margin in total and per unit.
2) Calculate the break-even point in units and sales revenue.
3) If the company is to double its budgeted net profit, how many units must be sold?
4) The production manager has suggested a replacement machine costing $400,000 be purchased. This would increase fixed production costs by $50,000 per year, but would reduce variable production costs by $1.00 per unit. What would be the new break-even point in units?
5) Calculate the sales required if the company is to make a net profit that gives a return of 12.5% on sales.
