After taking business classes, Jake, an avid dog$-$lover, decided to start selling unique pet supplies

at trade shows. He has two products:

Product $1$: "Launch$-$it$"-$ a tennis ball thrower that will sell for $$10.$

Product $2$: "Treat$-$time"$-$ an automatic treat dispenser that releases a treat when the dog places

his paw on the pedal. The treat dispenser will sell for $$30.$

Costs: Jake has hired an employee to work the trade show booths. The work contract is $$1,000$

per month plus a commission equal to $10\%$ of revenue. Jake will also spend $$500$ per month on

trade$-$show entry fees. Jake is purchasing the products from a supplier in Mexico. Launch$-$its

cost $$1$ each; Treat$-$times cost $$7$ each. Shipping and handling on the Launch$-$its will cost $$2$

each; Shipping and handling on the Treat$-$times, which are heavier, will cost $$8$ each. The

shipping and handling costs will be paid by Jake, not the customer.

Assume Jake expects to sell $200$ Launch$-$its and $100$ Treat$-$times during his first month of

operations $($June$).$

Jake's financial goal is to earn an operating income of $$8,000$ per month. He believes volume

may grow at a rate of $5\%$ a month.

Directions

You have been hired by Jake to build a CVP model that will help him understand the impact of business conditions on his operating

income. $($See "Starting File" worksheet.$)$ In your model, all of the original assumptions will be listed in one area of the spreadsheet

$($blue box$).$ All other calculations in the model will reference the assumptions $($blue box$)$ such that if any assumption changes, the

effect will ripple through the entire model. To accomplish this goal, you will use FORMULAs, rather than numbers, in every other

cell in the worksheet. In other words, the only place you will type numbers is the blue assumptions box.

FIRST TASK: Rename your worksheet to your name and ID#: Name$\_$ID#

FORMATTING conventions to use throughout project:

$-$ Round all UNITS to the nearest whole unit. Use the "decrease decimals" button on your tool bar rather than the Rounding

function.

$-$ Show all MONETARY amounts as dollars and cents. Round to the nearest cent. $($$x$.$xx$).$ Use the "decrease decimals" button rather

than the rounding function.

$-$ Show all percentages as $\%,$ not as decimals. $($x$\%,$ not $.$xx$)$

$-$ Right justify all cells $($numbers should be to the right side of the cell, not in the middle or left$)$

$1)$ Complete the assumptions $($blue box$)$ based on the data about Jake's business. Identify and list all variable costs separately and

all fixed costs separately before finding the total for each type of cost$.$

$2)$ Complete the Product Analysis $($yellow boxes$)$ assuming Jake ONLY sells either Product #$1($Launch$-$its$)$ OR Product #$2($Treat

$-$times$).$

Check figures: B$/$E Product #$1=250$ units; B$/$E Product #$2=125$ units

$3)$ Complete the pro forma Contribution Margin $($CM$)$ Income Statement for the month of June $($green box$).$ HINT: On product line

income statements such as this, the fixed costs are only listed in the total column. Make sure you also show the totals for all other

line items. Finally, calculate the overall Weighted Average Contribution Margin $($WACM$)\%$ for the company.

Check figure: Operating income $=$ $$900$ WACM$\%=48\%$

$4)$ Calculate the weighted average contribution margin $($WACM$)$ per unit $($in orange box$).$

Check figure: WACM$/$unit $=$ $$8\mathrm{.}00$

$5)$ Use the WACM$/$unit to calculate the TOTAL number of units needed to breakeven $($TOTAL column in the first gray box$).$ THEN,

calculate the number of EACH type of product needed to breakeven. Finally, calculate the sales revenue associated with this

volume for EACH product, and then the sales revenue to breakeven in total.

Check figures: B$/$E Product #$1=125$; B$/$E Product #$2=63$

$6)$ Use the WACM$/$unit to calculate the total number of units needed to achieve Jake's target profit $($TOTAL column in the second

gray box$).$ THEN, calculate the number of EACH type of product needed to achieve the target profit. Finally, calculate sales

revenue associated with this volume for EACH product, and then the sales revenue in total.

Check figures: B$/$E Product #$1=792$; B$/$E Product #$2=396$

$7)$ Calculate the MOS using June sales as the expected sales $($purple box$).$ Calculate the MOS in terms of sales revenue and as a

percentage. Also calculate the current operating leverage factor $($round to the nearest $2$ decimal places$)$ and use it to determine

the expected percentage change in operating income stemming from an expected change in sales volume.

Check figures: MOS$\%=38\%$; Operating leverage factor$=2\mathrm{.}67$

$8)$ Change name of worksheet to "Original Assumptions".

Check figures: B$/$E Product #$1=792$; B$/$E Product #$2=396$

$7)$ Calculate the MOS using June sales as the expected sales $($purple box$).$ Calculate the MOS in terms of sales revenue and as a

percentage. Also calculate the current operating leverage factor $($round to the nearest $2$ decimal places$)$ and use it to determine

the expected percentage change in operating income stemming from an expecte
