Expected unit sales: 10 ,000 UNITS Fixed costs $50,000 Selling Price per unit : $12.50 Per Unit Variable Cost: $4.50 Material cost : 15.90

Question A A) Calculate the break-even point in units and in dollars for A enterprises .

Formula to calculate break-even point is Selling Price ( Units - Variable Costs) = Total fixed Cost

Taking units as common Units ( Selling Price - Variable Costs) = Total Fixed Cost

Units = Total Fixed costs/ (Selling Price - Variable Cost)

Answer : In Units = $50000/$12.50 - $4.50) = $50000/$8 = 6250 units Break-even point in "units" is 6250 units

Formula to calculate Break-even point in dollars Units X Selling Price

Answer :

In Dollars = 6250 units X $12.50 = $78125 Break-even in dollars = $78,125

Question B B) What if the material cost was actually 20.50 due to the increase in transportation costs and the sales for the month of July were not collected in July but in August ?

Calculate the "new break" even in units and dollars

In Units = $50000/$20.50 - $4.50) = $50000/$15= 3,125 units Break-even point in "units" is 3,125 units

In Dollars = 3,125 units X $20.50 = $ 64062.50 Break-even in dollars = $64,062.50
