Bernard Windows plans to sell two different brands of windows-- Chad and Musk--- and budgets the following:

Chad Musk Total

Expected sales 2500 1000 3500

Revenues (500 and 350 per unit) $1,250,000 $350,000 $1,600,000

Variable cost ( 400 and 275 per unit) $1,000,000 $275,000 $1,275,000

Contribution margin (100 and 75 ) 250,000 $75,000 $325,000

Fixed costs $195,000

Operating income $130,000

Calculate the break even point for Bernard Windows in terms of the (a) number of units sold and (b) revenues.

Answer:

1.(a). Breakeven point (in units) = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= 500 - 400 = 100 per unit

Breakeven point = 150,000 / 100 per unit

Breakeven point = 1500 units

Breakeven point ( in revenue) = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin ratio

Contribution margin ratio = ( Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) / Selling price per unit ×100

= ($500 - $400) / $500 ×100

= 20%

Breakeven point ( in revenue) = $150,000 / 20%

Breakeven point ( in revenue) = $750,000

(b). Let x be the unknown quantity of units Bernard Windows must sell to earn an operating income of $100,000. Selling price is $500

Revenue - Variable cost - Fixed cost = operating income

($500 * x) - ($400*x) - $150,000 = $100,000

($100* x) = $250,000

x = $250,000 / $100 per unit = 2,500 units

Quantity of units required to be sold = 2,500 units

Revenue to earn an operating income of $100,000 is

Revenue = Number of units required to be sold * Selling Price

Revenue = 2,500 * $500 = $1,250,000

2. Target operating income = Target net income / (1 - Tax Rate)

= $63,000 / (1 - 0.30)

= $90,000

In other words, to earn a target net income of $63,000, Bernard Windows Target operating income is $90,000.

Proof: Target operating income $90,000

Tax at 30% ( $90,000*0.30) $27,000

Target net income $63,000

Calculation of number of units Bernard Windows must sell:

Quantity of units required to be sold = Fixed cost + Target operating income / Contribution margin per unit

= $150,000 + $90,000 / $100 = $2,400 units

Quantity of units required to be sold = 2,400 units

Revenue to earn net income of $63,000 is:

Revenue = Number of units required to be sold * Selling price

= 2,400 * $500

Revenue = $1,200,000

3. Margin of Safety = Budgeted revenue - Breakeven revenue

= $1,200,000 - $750,000

Margin of Safety = $450,000

Margin of safety (in units) = Budgeted Sales (units) - Breakeven Sales (units)

= 2,400 - 1,500

Margin of safety (in units) = 900 units

The margin of safety indicated that sales would have to decrease by 900 units and revenue by $450,000 before the breakeven point is reached.

Margin of safety percentage = Margin of safety in dollars / Budgeted revenues

= $450,000 / $1,200,000 * 100 = 37.5%

This result means that revenue would have to decrease substantially, by 60%, to reach the breakeven revenues.

5. Let we assume that the budgeted sales mix (2,500 units of chad windows sold for every 1,000 units of Musk windows sold, that is a ratio of 5:2) will not change at different levels of total unit sales.

                  Number of units of            Contribution Margin

                 Chad Windows and      per unit for Chad Windows

                  Musk Windows in             and Mask Windows        Contribution

                  each bundle                                          margin the bundle

Chad Windows     5                             $100                             $500

Musk windows      2                               $75                              $150

Total                                                                                $650

To calculate breakeven point, we calculate the number of bundles Bernard needs to sell.

Breakeven point in bundles = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per bundle

= $195,000 / $650 = 300 bundles

a. Breakeven point in units of Chad Windows and Musk windows is as follows:

Chad windows: 300 bundles× 5 units per bundle = 1,500 units

Musk windows: 300 bundles ×2 units per bundle = 600 units

Total number of units to breakeven = 1,500 + 600 = 2,100 units

b. The breakeven point in dollars for Chad windows and Musk windows is as follows:

Chad windows: 1,500 units × $500 per unit = $750,000

Musk windows: 600 units ×$350 per unit = $210,000

Breakeven revenue = $750,000 + $210,000 = $960,000
