Northwood Company manufactures basketballs

Business

Northwood Company manufactures basketballs. The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable costs are high, totaling $15 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor costs.

 

Last year, the company sold 30,000 of these balls, with the following results:

 

Sales (30,000 balls)

750,000

Variable expenses

450,000

Contribution margin

300,000

Fixed expenses

210,000

Net operating income

90,000

Compute (i) the CM ratio and the break-even point in balls, and (ii) the degree of operating leverage at last year's sales level.
