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
