Amazing Productions performs London shows. The average show sells 1,000 tickets at $60 per ticket. There are 120 shows per year. No additional shows can be held as the theater is also used by other production companies. The average show has a cast of 60, each earning a net average of $320 per show. The cast is paid after each show. The other variable cost is program-printing cost of $8 per guest. Annual fixed costs total $459,200.

1)Compute revenue and variable costs for each show.

2)Use the equation approach to compute the number of shows Amazing Productions must perform each year to break even.

3)Use the contribution margin ratio approach to compute the number of shows needed each year to earn a profit of $4,264,000. Is this profit goal realistic? Give your reasoning.

4)Prepare Amazing Production's contribution margin income statement for 120 shows performed in 2016. Report only two categories of costs: variable and fixed.
