the breakeven point in sales revenue for Sophia's Delivery Service is  $10,333

Explanation:

                                                         = $6,200 / (($55- $22)/$55)

                                                         =  $6,200/ 0.6

                                                         =   $10,333

Answer 2

Answer:

The breakeven in sales value is $10,333.33

Explanation:

Breakeven in sales=fixed expenses/contribution margin*service fee charged

Fixed expenses is $6,200

Contribution margin=service fee per run-variable cost per run

service fee per run is $55

variable cost per run is $22

contribution margin per run=$55-$22=$33

breakeven in sales=$6,200/$33*$55

breakeven in sales=187.8787879 *$55

breakeven in sales value=$10,333.33  

Break-even sales is the sales revenue expected when the company makes no profit and no loss
