Expert Solution

a.
Unit Contribution Margin = Average Sales - Average Variable Cost
= $9.50 - 3.80 = $5.70

Contribution Margin percentage = Contribution Margin / Sales
= $5.70 / 9.50 = 60%

b.
Target Pretax income = $159600 / 70% = $228000

Revenes required = (Fixed Costs +target income) / Contribution Margin ratio
= ($456000+228000) / 60% = $1,140,000

c.
Break even = Fixed Costs / Unit Contribution Margin
= $456000 / 5.7 = 80000 customers

Customers required = (Fixed Costs +target income) / Unit Contribution Margin
= ($456000+228000) / 5.7 = 120000 customers
