Answer:
Explanation:
1. Fixed Costs = 160,000
Pretax income = 164,000
Total contribution desired = 324,000 [160,000+164,000]
CM Ratio = 0.25
Sales = 324,000/0.25 = 1,296,000
2. Variable costs = Sales - Fixed costs - Pretax income = 1,296,000 - 160,000 - 164,000 = 972,000
So Total Sales amount to $1,296,000 and Variable cost is $972,000
