Expert Answer
a) BEP ( units ) = Fixed cost / CM per unit = 36000 / (12 – 3 ) = 4000 units
BEP ( $ ) = 4000 * 12 = $ 48000
b) Units to be sold = ( target income + fixed cost ) / CM per unit = ( 18000 + 36000 ) / (12 – 3 ) = 6000 units
c) Operating income – 40 % * Operating income = 16200
Operating income = $ 27000
d) To earn net income of $ 16200 , operating income of $ 18000 should be earned ( as calculated in c ) and to earn operating income of $ 18000 , 6000 units to be sold ( as calculated in b )
We take income before taxes for calculating units to be sold.
