You are currently trying to decide between two cost structures for your business: one that has a greater proportion of short$-$term fixed

costs and another that is more heavily weighted to variable costs. Estimated revenue and cost data for each alternative are as follows:

Required:

What sales volume, in units, is needed for the total costs in each cost$-$structure alternative to be the same?

Suppose your profit goal for the coming year is $10\%$ of sales $($Le$.,$ operating profit$/$sales $=10\%).$ What sales level in units is needed

under each alternative to achieve this goal?

Suppose again that your profit goal for the coming year is $10\%$ of sales. What sales volume in dollars is needed under each

alternative to achieve this goal?
