Answer:
1,500 units; 1,000 units
Explanation:
Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
Fixed cost = $160,000
Sales Mix = 60% of X + 40% of Y
= 0.6X + 0.4Y
So,
Contribution Margin of the Mix:
= (60% × contribution margin of X) + (40% × contribution margin of Y
)
Contribution Margin of the Mix per unit:
= (60% × 80) + (40% × 40)
= 48 + 16
= $64
Break Even Point (in units) = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit
= 160,000 ÷ 64
= 2,500 unit
At the Level of break even
:
Unit of X at break-even:
= 60% of 2,500
= 1,500 units
Unit of Y at break-even:
= 40% of 2,500
= 1,000 units
