1. Compute the contribution margin percentage.
40%2. Compute the selling price if variable costs are $16 per unit.
$26.673. Suppose 65 comma 000 units are sold. Compute the margin of safety in units and dollars.
margin of safety in $ = $633,550margin of safety in % = 36.55%4. What does this tell you about the risk of McKnight making a loss? What are the most likely reasons for this risk to increase?
Since the contribution margin is relatively high, this means that the production costs are relatively low (compared to selling price). The associated risks may come from high leverage, e.g. machinery purchased on credit that results in high interest expense. For the most part, having a high contribution margin is generally very good, just ask Apple.Explanation:
break even point is $ = $1,100,000 (= break even point units x selling price)
fixed costs = $660,000
contribution margin % = (total sales - total variable costs) / total sales
total variable costs = $1,100,000 - $660,000 = $440,000
contribution margin % = ($1,100,000 - $660,000) / $1,100,000 = 40%
variable costs = $16 per unit
0.4 = (x - $16) / x
0.4x = x - $16
$16 = 0.6x
x = $26.67
65,000 x $26.67 = $1,733,550
margin of safety in $ = $1,733,550 - $1,100,000 = $633,550
margin of safety in % = $633,550 / $1,733,550 = 36.55%

the company should enter into a forward contract.
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the in order to achieve this the company should enter into a forward contract.

Therefore reducing the market risk that they buyer is exposed to.
