Answer:

Total Break even sales = 154,000  units

Lawnmowers ($154,000 × 20%) = 30,800 Units

Weed-trimmers ($154,000 × 50%) =  77,000 units

Chainsaws ($154,000 × 30%) = 46,200 Units

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,  the computation is shown below:

Weighted contribution margin = Contribution margin × Sales mix

= (0.2 × 30) + (0.5 × $21) + (0.3 × $39)

= $28.2

Now, Total break even sales = Fixed cost  ÷ Weighted contribution margin

= $4,342,800 ÷ $28.2

= 154,000  units

So classifications are as follows

Lawnmowers ($154,000 × 20%) = 30,800 Units

Weed-trimmers ($154,000 × 50%) =  77,000 units

Chainsaws ($154,000 × 30%) = 46,200 Units

We simply multiplied the total break even sales with each sales mix
