The percentage that's represented by the change is E. None of the above.

Based on the information given, we'll segregate the cost into a fixed and variable cost. This will be:

Variable costDirect material and labor: = $2.50/CDSongwriters' royalties: = $0.70/CDRecording Artists' royalties: = $2.00/CDTotal variable cost = $5.20/CDSelling price to CD Distributor = $10.00/CDContribution = $4.80/CDFixed Costs:Advertising & promotion: = $380,000Sony Records Inc.'s Overhead: = $300,000Total fixed costs = $680,000

The break-even point will then be calculated thus:

= Fixed costs/Contribution per unit

= $680,000/$4.8

= 142,000 CDs

The Percentage increase will be:

= (142000 - 100000) / 100000 × 100

= 42000/100000 × 100

= 42%

In conclusion, the correct option is None of the above.

Cost and Revenue information for the new CD

e. None of the above

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Variable cost:

Direct material and labor): $2.50/CD

Songwriters' royalties: $0.70/CD

Recording Artists' royalties: $2.00/CD

Total variable cost $5.20/CD

Selling price to CD Distributor: $10.00/CD

Contribution $4.80/CD

Fixed Costs:

Advertising & promotion: $380,000

Sony Records Inc.'s Overhead: $300,000

Total fixed costs $680,000

The break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution per unit

= $680,000/$4.8 = 142,000 CDs

Knowing they had been selling 100,000 CDs

There is an increase of 42,000 (142,000 - 100,000)

This increase represents a change of 42% = (42,000/100,000 * 100)

The change in sales from 100,000 CDs to 142,000 CDs in order to break-even is a 42% increase. None of the given options from a to d has the answer.
