Answer:
781 units
Explanation:
Under the CVP concept, the break-even point is calculated by dividing the fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit.
i.e., break-even point = fixed cost/ contribution margin per unit
Currently, fixed costs are $213,000, an increase of 10% will take to
=(10/100 x $213,000) + $213,000
=$21,300 + 213,000
=$234, 300
The selling price is $250, an increase of 40%
=$250 x 1.4
=$350
variable cost will remain the same this year and the following year
Current variable costs are 20% of sales
=20/100 x 250
=0.2 x 250
=$50
Contribution margin will be new selling price - variable costs
=$350-50
=$300
Break-eve point = $234, 300/300
=781 units
Answer:
Find attached complete question:
common stock dividends is $38,960
preferred stock dividends is $5,040
Explanation:
Going by the complete question,preferred stock dividends is computed thus:
preferred stock dividends=number of shares*par value*dividend rate
number of shares is 7000 (issued and outstanding)
par value of share is $12
dividend rate is 6%
preferred stock dividend=7000*$12*6%=$5040
The preferred stockholders would receive $5040 dividends while the remainder of dividends goes to common stockholders as shown below
Total dividends $44,000
preferred stock dividends ($5040)
common stock dividends $38,960
