Problem 21-3A (Algo) Break-even analysis; income targeting and strategy LO C2, A1, P2 [The following information applies to the questions displayed below] Astro Company sold 29,500 units of its only product and reported income of $234,000 for the current year. During a planning session for next year's activities, the production manager notes that variable costs can be reduced 50% by installing a machine that automates several operations. To obtain these savings, the company must increase its annual fixed costs by $180,000. Total units sold and the selling price per unit will not change. 3. Compute the sales level required in both dollars and units to earn $100,000 of target income for next year with the machine installed. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Round "Contribution margin ratio" to nearest whole percentage)
