Answer:

The answer is $2,857.14    

Explanation:

Let us assume Sales be $500 per month  

                                                 Monthly    

Sales                                    $500    

Less: Variable Cost(72%)    $360    

Contribution(will be 28%)    $140    

Less: Fixed Cost(Assume)      0    

Operating Income                     $140    

If there should be an increase of $800 per month in the operating Income

Revised Operating Income $140 + $800 = $940  

Therefore Contribution is equal to $ 940  

If Contribution is $940 equal to 28%, then Sales be 100%  

$940 ÷ 28%    

$3,357.14    

Therefore additional increase in Sales revenue required per month

$3,357.14 - $500    

$2,857.14

700 units in beginning work in process:

  • materials: 70% complete, $8,700, completed 490 equivalent units, not completed 210 units
  • conversion: 10% complete, $3,700
