Contribution Margin = Contribution/Sales × 100

Therefore contribution margin is  ($444-$311)/$444 * 100 = 29.95% (2 d.p)

Part b

Sales - Variable Cost = Contribution

Net Income  =   Contribution - Total Fixed Costs                            

Part c

Break Even Point is when Billings neither makers a profit or loss.

Break Even Point ( Units) = Total Fixed Cost/Contribution per unit

Therefore Break Even Point (Units) = $59850/$133 = 450 units

Part d

The total and unit CVP should neither reflect a profit or loss at a capacity of 450 units as this is the break even point. In this case profit = nill

Direct labor                                           0.40          100,200

Variable manufacturing overhead       1.04         260,520

Fixed manufacturing overhead            1.02         255,510

Fixed manufacturing overhead           1.02          255,510

Incremental costs                             $3.48         $871,740

Explanation:

The per unit and the total costs at full capacity for Y-Go:

                                                 Per Undergarment       Total

Imagine that you invest $100,000 in an account that pays 5.9% annual interest compounded monthly. What will your balance be at t
kodGreya [7K]
The compound interest formula is: A= P(1+ \frac{r}{n} ) ^{nt}
Where:
A is the amount you will have.
P is the money you are investing.
r: is the interest rate (in decimals)
n: number of times the interest is compounded per year
t: time (in years)

The first thing is converting the rate from percentage to decimal: 
\frac{5.9}{100} = 0.059

Since the interest is compounded every month and a year has 12 months n=12.

Now we can replace the values in our formula:
A=100000(1+ \frac{0.059}{12} ) ^{(12)(18)}

We can simplify the exponents to get:
A=100000(1+ \frac{0.059}{12} ) ^{216}

Finally, we can use our calculator to get 288463.33

After 18 your balance in your bank account will be $288463.33
