And now suppose the asset sold was bought by one of our greatest competitor.

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales in units= 42,000

Total sales= $297,000

Total variable expenses= $222,750

Total fixed expenses= $36,900

<u>To calculate the contribution margin ratio, we need to use the following formula:</u>

contribution margin ratio= (sales - total variable cost) / sales

contribution margin ratio= (297,000 - 222,750) / 297,000

contribution margin ratio= 0.25

<u>Now, the effect on the income of an increase in sales:</u>

Effect on income= contribution margin ratio*increase in sales

Effect on income= 0.25*1,800

Effect on income= $450 increase
