Required: 1. Compute the company's CM ratio and its break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. 2. The president believes that a $6,500 increase in the monthly advertising budget, combined with an intensified effort by the sales staff, will increase unit sales and the total sales by $87,000 per month. If the president is right, what will be the increase (decrease) in the company's monthly net operating income? 3. Refer to the original data. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with an increase of $33,000 in the monthly advertising budget, will double unit sales.

Assuming no other changes, how many units would have to be sold each month to attain a target profit of $4,100 ? 5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses would increase by $54,000 each month. a. Compute the new CM ratio and the new break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. b. Assume that the company expects to sell 20,600 units next month. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one assuming that operations are not automated and one assuming that they are.
