Intensive Intensive
Direct materials $5 per unit $5.50 per unit
Direct labor $6 per unit $8.00 per unit
Variable overhead $ 3 per unit $ 4.50 per unit
Fixed manufacturing costs $ 2,508,000 $ 1,538,000
Martinez's market research department has recommended an introductory unit sales price of $ 30. The incremental selling expenses are estimated to be $502,000 annually plus $2 for each unit sold regardless of manufaturing method.
a. Calculate the estimated break-even point in annual unit sales of the new product if Martinez company uses the:
1. Capital - intensive manufacuring method
2. Labor - intensive manufacturting method
b. Determine the annual unit sales volume at which Martinez Company would be indifferent between the two manufacturing methods.
