        Break even point (in sales dollars) = fixed cost/contribution margin ratioContribution margin ratio = 100% - variable cost ratio
 = 1010% - 65%
 = 35%
 Break even point = 91,000/35%
 =$260,000

        Sales revenue - (0.65)Sales revenue - $91,000 = $0(0.35)Sales revenue = $91,000
 Sales revenue = $260,000
