$($a$)$

Correct Answer $($Used$)$

Compute $(1)$ the contribution margin for the current year and the projected year, and $(2)$ the fixed costs for the current year.

$($Assume that fixed costs will remain the same in the projected year.$)$

$(1)$ Contribution margin for current year

Contribution margin for projected year

$(2)$ Fixed costs for current year

$($b$)$

Compute the break$-$even point in sales units and sales dollars for the first year. $($Round contribution margin ratio to $1$ decimal place

e$.$g$.0\mathrm{.}5$ and final answers to $0$ decimal places, e$.$g$.2,510.)$
