Question Completion:

Magic Realm, Inc., has developed a new fantasy board game. The company sold 32,400 games last year at a selling price of $67 per game. Fixed expenses associated with the game total $567,000 per year, and variable expenses are $47 per game. Production of the game is entrusted to a printing contractor. Variable expenses consist mostly of payments to this contractor. Required: 1-a. Prepare a contribution format income statement for the game last year. 1-b. Compute the degree of operating leverage. 2. Management is confident that the company can sell 41,796 games next year (an increase of 9,396 games, or 29%, over last year). Given this assumption: a. What is the expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year?

Answer:

Magic Realm, Inc.

1-a. Contribution-Format Income Statement

For the last year ended December 31

Sales revenue $2,170,000 (32,400 * $67)

Variable costs 1,522,800 (32,400 * $47)

Contribution $647,200 (32,400 * $20)

Fixed expenses 567,000

Net operating income $80,200

1-b. Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution/Net operating income

= 8.07

The expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year

= 235.3%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Last year's figures:

Sales = 32,400 games

Selling price per game = $67

Variable cost per game = $47

Fixed expenses = $567,000 per year

1-a. Contribution-Format Income Statement

For the last year ended December 31

Sales revenue $2,170,000 (32,400 * $67)

Variable costs 1,522,800 (32,400 * $47)

Contribution $647,200 (32,400 * $20)

Fixed expenses 567,000

Net operating income $80,200

1-b. Degree of Operating Leverage = Contribution/Net operating income

= $647,200/$80,200 = 8.07

2. Next year:

Sales = 41,796 games

Sales revenue = $2,800,332 (41,796 * $67)

Variable cost = 1,964,412 (41,796 * $47)

Contribution = $835,920

Fixed costs = 567,000

Net operating income $268,920

The expected percentage increase in net operating income for next year

Increase in net operating income = $188,720 ($268,920 - $80,200)

= $188,720/$80,200 * 100 = 235.3%
