Additional Information:
Selling and administrative costs (a mixed cost) are budgeted to be $75,400 at the production and sales listed above
The variable component cost (for both products) / unit = $4 Given (Multiply this x units = total variable cost)
Manufacturing overhead cost (a mixed cost) are budgeted to be $90,000 at the production and sales listed above
The fixed component = $66,000 Given (Therefore the difference must be total variable cost)
Each product uses the same amount of variable manufacturing overhead per unit.
Assuming the budgeted sales mix remains intact, how many units of each product does XYZ need to sell in order to break even?
Preliminary Goals:
Preliminary Goal 1: Find total Fixed Costs and Variable Costs/Unit.
Preliminary Goal 2: Find contribution margin per unit to determine break even units.
