Sales                                           199800                       444

Net Income                                       0                              0

Explanation:

Part a

Contribution Margin = Contribution/Sales × 100

Therefore contribution margin is  ($444-$311)/$444 * 100 = 29.95% (2 d.p)

Part b

Sales - Variable Cost = Contribution

Net Income  =   Contribution - Total Fixed Costs                            

Part c

Break Even Point is when Billings neither makers a profit or loss.

Break Even Point ( Units) = Total Fixed Cost/Contribution per unit

Therefore Break Even Point (Units) = $59850/$133 = 450 units

Part d

The total and unit CVP should neither reflect a profit or loss at a capacity of 450 units as this is the break even point. In this case profit = nill

i would say their habit of breaking down.
