Explanation:
Expected sales(S) -58000 units
Variable cost ( VC) = $9/unit
Fixed cost ( FC) =$ 300000
Sales price =$26/unit
a) Average total cost next year
ATC=(TFC+TVC)/number of units sold = TC/number of units sold
TFC-Total fixed cost; TVC - Total variable cost; TC-Total cost
TVC= 9×58000= 522000
TC=300000+522000=822000$
ATC= 822000/58000= 14.17$
b) Marginal contribution rate = contribution per unit of quantity sold
Contribution = SP-VC = = 26 - 9= $ 17
SP - Selling price; VC -Variable cost
marginal contribution is $17
C) Profit margin = Total sales - total cost
Total sales = 58000*26; Total cost = 58,000*14.17
PM= 1508000-821860 = $ 686140
d) Break even volume =( Fixed cost/profit volume ratio)
P/ v ratio =( Contribution /sales ) = 17/26
Break even volume = 300000/( 17/26) = 458824$
