Sitz company makes chairs. the budgeted selling price is $55 per chair, the variable rate is $25 per chair and budgeted fixed costs are $20,000 per month. what is the budgeted operating income for 3,100 chairs sold in a month?

$73,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Selling Price per unit = $55

Variable rate per unit = $15

Budgeted fixed costs = $20,000

Number of chairs sold = 3,100

Now,

Contribution per unit = Selling Price per unit - Variable rate per unit

= $55 - $25

= $30

Therefore,

Total contribution = Contribution per unit  × Number of chairs sold

= $30 × 3,100

= $93,000

Hence,

Operating income = Total contribution - Budgeted fixed costs

= $93,000 - $20,000

= $73,000
