Need help please!!!

Outback Outfitters sells recreational equipment. One of the companys products, a small camp stove, sells for $130 per unit. Variable expenses are $91 per stove, and fixed expenses associated with the stove total $183,300 per month.

Required:

1.

Compute the companys break-even point in unit sales and in dollar

	Break-Even Point
Number of stoves
Total sales dollars

2.

If the variable expenses per stove increase as a percentage of the selling price, will it result in a higher or a lower break-even point? (Assume that the fixed expenses remain unchanged.)

	Higher break-even point
	Lower break-even point

3.

At present, the company is selling 16,000 stoves per month. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price would result in a 25% increase in monthly sales of stoves. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one under present operating conditions, and one as operations would appear after the proposed changes.
