Answer:
45,000 Chainsaws
75,000 Weed-trimmers
30,000 Lawnmowers
Explanation:
<em>Contribution Margin Mix</em>
We are going to <u>multiply the contribution margin of the product, by their sales proportion.</u> The we add the mix contribution of each product to get the contribution margin for the mix.
Lawnmowers 20 % $30 = 6
Weed-trimmers 50 % $20 = 10
Chainsaws 30 % $40 = 12
Total Mix Contribution 28
<u>Next we calculate the BEP in units as usual</u>
4,200,000/ 28 = 150,000 Mix units
Now <u>we multiply the mix units by each product weight</u> to get the sales for each product.
150,000 x 20% = 30,000 Lawnmowers
150,000 x 50% = 75,000 Weed-trimmers
150,000 x 30% = 45,000 Chainsaws
