Contribution Margin Ratio, Variable Cost Ratio, Break-Even Sales Revenue The controller of Ashton Company prepared the following
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

1.  73 %

2. 27 %

3. $60,000

4. Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :

  1. Reduce the variable costs per unit
  2. Reduce fixed overheads

Explanation:

Contribution Margin Ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

Where,

Contribution = Sales - Variable Costs

                     = $88,000 - $23,760

                     = $64,240

Then,

Contribution Margin Ratio = $64,240/ $88,000 × 100

                                           = 73 %

Variable Cost Ratio = Variable Cost / Sales × 100

                                = $23,760 / $88,000 × 100

                                = 27 %

Break-even sales revenue = Fixed Costs ÷  Contribution Margin Ratio

                                            = $43,800 ÷ 0.73

                                            = $60,000

<u>Ways to increase projected operating income without increasing total sales revenue :</u>

  1. Reduce the variable costs per unit
  2. Reduce fixed overheads
