1. Use the equation approach to compute the number of flags Kincaid must sell each year to break even. 2. Use the contribution margin ratio approach to compute the dollar sales Kincaid needs to earn $25,200 in operating income for the year. (Round the contribution margin ratio to two decimal places) 3. Prepare Kincaid's contribution margin income statement for the year ended December 31 , for sales of 71,000 flags. (Round your final answers up to the next whole number.) 4. The company is considering an expansion that will increase fixed costs by 30% and variable costs by $1.40 per flag. Compute the new breakeven point in units and in dollars. Should Kincaid undertake the expansion? Give your reasoning. (Round your final answers up to the next whole number.) Kincaid Company sells flags with team logos. Kincaid has fixed costs of $336,000 per year plus variable costs of $9.80 per flag. Each flag sells for $14.00. Read the Requirement 1. Use the equation approach to compute the number of flags. Kincaid must sell each year to break even. First, select the formula to compute the required sales in units to break even. Rearrange the formula you determined above and compute the required number of flags to break even. The number of flags Kincaid must sell each year to break even is Requirement 2. Use the contribution margin ratio approach to compute the dollar sales Kincaid needs to earn $25,200 in operating income for the year. (Round the contribution margin ratio to two decimal places.) Begin by showing the formula and then entering the amounts to calculate the required sales dollars to eam $25.200 in operating income. (Round the required sales in dollars up to the nearest whole dollar. For example, $10.25 would be rounded to 511 . Abbreviation used CM= contribution margin.) Requirement 3. Prepare Kincaid's contribution margin income statement for the year ended December 31, for sales of 71,000 flags. (Round your final answers up to the next whole number.) (Use parentheses or a minus sion for an operating loss.) Requirement 4. The company is considering an expansion that will increase fixed costs by 30% and variable costs by $1.40 per flag. Compute the new breakeven point in units and in dollars. Should Kincaid undertake the expansion? Give your reasoning. (Round your final answers up to the next whole number.) (Use the equation approach.) Begin by selecting the formula to compute the required sales in units to break even under the expansion plan. Rearrange the formula you determined above and compute the required number of tlags to break even under the expansion plan. Under the expansion plan, the breakeven point in units would be flags: Under the expansion plan, the breakeven point in dollars would be Should Kincaid undertake the expansion? Give your reasoning Kincaid should only undertake the expansion if expected profits from the expansion the expected costs
