Problem 5-22 (Algo) CVP Applications; Contribution Margin Ratio; Break-Even Analysis; Cost Structure [LO5-1, LO5-3, LO5-4, LO5-5, LO5-6] Due to erratic sales of its sole product-a high-capacity battery for laptop computers-PEM, Incorporated, has been experiencing financial difficulty for some time. The company's contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given below: Sales (13,100 units $20 per unit) Variable expenses Contribution margin. Fixed expenses Net operating loss $ 262,000 131,000 131,000 146,000 $ (15,000) Required: 1. Compute the company's CM ratio and its break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. 2. The president believes that a $7,000 increase in the monthly advertising budget, combined with an intensified effort by the sales staff, will increase unit sales and the total sales by $82,000 per month. If the president is right, what will be the increase (decrease) in the company's monthly net operating income? 3. Refer to the original data. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with an increase of $36,000 in the monthly advertising budget, will double unit sales. If the sales manager is right, what will be the revised net operating income (loss)? 4. Refer to the original data. The Marketing Department thinks that a fancy new package for the laptop computer battery would grow sales. The new package would increase packaging costs by $0.70 per unit. Assuming no other changes, how many units would have to be sold each month to attain a target profit of $5,000? 5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses would increase by $54,000 each month. a. Compute the new CM ratio and the new break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. b. Assume that the company expects to sell 20,800 units next month. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one income (loss)? 4. Refer to the original data. The Marketing Department thinks that a fancy new package for the laptop computer battery would grow sales. The new package would increase packaging costs by $0.70 per unit. Assuming no other changes, how many units would have to be sold each month to attain a target profit of $5,000? 5. Refer to the original data.
