Respuesta :

Answer:

Missing word "sold 20,000 units during the month at a sales price of $60 per unit.. b. What is the company's degree of operating leverage? c. How many units would the company have to sell to achieve a desired operating income before taxes of $150,000?"

a. Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution margin / Sales

= 400000 / 1200000

= 0.3333

= 33.33%

b. Operating Leverage = Contribution / Net Income

= 400000 / 100000

= 4 Times

c. Sale to achieve desired profit = (Fixed Cost + Desired Profit) / Contribution Margin Ratio

= (300000 + 150000) / 0.3333

= $1350000

Sales in Units = $1350000 / 60 units = 22500 units
