Answer:

(i) 900 CDs

(ii) Greater than; $1,650

Explanation:

(1) Break-event point will be when the contribution margin from total sales is equal to fixed costs,

Contribution Margin = Selling price - variable cost

                                  = $(21.5 - 9.5)

                                  = $12

Contribution Margin *Number of CDs sold = $10,800

Break-even point for Studio A = 10,800 ÷ 12

                                                    = 900 CDs

(2) Studio A would be more profitable when the extra profit earned from per unit sale of CD exceeds the extra fixed cost given in Studio A.

Extra Contribution margin in Studio A = $(12-10)

                                                               = $2

Extra Fixed cost in Studio A = $(10,800 - 7,500)

                                               = $3,300

Studio A should be chosen if sales is greater than (3300/2) = $1,650.

Stels [109]

Answer:

1,000 units

Explanation:

The break even point refers to the number of units of a product a company would sell such that the company's sales is equal to the total cost.

The total cost includes the fixed and variable costs. As such, at break even point, net profit is zero.

Let the number of units be G

25G = 10G + $15,000

15G = $15,000

G = 1000 units

The number of units that has to be produced and sold to break even is 1,000 units.
