Fixed cost = salary + budgeted auto and travel expenses

Fixed cost = 28000 + 12000

Fixed cost = $40000

and now salesman sell before contributes anything to manufacturing overhead and profit will be as

salesman sell before contributes anything to manufacturing overhead and profit = Fixed cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit .......................1
