    hi, I have two questions if someone wouldn't mind helping me with! Thanks

    Question 1: The contribution margin ratio is 30% for the Honeyville Company and the break-even point in sales is $150,000. If the company's target net operating income is $60,000, sales would have to be:


    Question 2: Korn Company sells two products, as follows:
    Selling Price Per Unit Variable Expense per unit
    Product Y $120 $70
    Product Z 500 200

    Fixed Expenses total $300,000 annually. The expected sales mix in units is 60% for product Y and 40% for product Z. How much is Korn's expected break-even sales in dollars?

    1) Fixed cost is 150,000 (refer to the Break-Even Point)
    the Cm has to be 210,000 to get the Net incom of 60,000 (150,000+60,000)
    Sales = 210,000/0.3
    = 700,000
    Rate
    Total Sales 700,000 100%
    V 490,000 70%
    CM 210,000 30%
    Fixed Cost 150,000
    Net income 60,000

    2) Use Basket to do, a basket contain 60%of Y and 40%of Z, so 6Y and 4Z in a basket.
    the total CM in a basket = 6(50)+4(300)= $1500
    so units sold in basket would be 300,000/150,000=200 baskets
    eachbaskt contain 6Y and 4Z,
    so Y is 1200 and Z is 800

    Y Z
    revenue 144,000 400,000
    Variable 84,000 160,000
    CM 60,000 240,000
    Total CM 300,000
    Fixed Expense 300,000
    Net income 0
