Answer:

$4,812,500 Dollar sales to achieve EBT of 1,125,000

Explanation:

The goal would be to calcualte the break even formula adding in the dividend the target profit:

[tex]\frac{FixedCost+Target Profit}{Contribution Margin Ratio} = $Sales to Target Profit[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\frac{Contribution Margin}{Sales Revenue} = $Contribution Margin Ratio[/tex]

Where:

[tex]$Contribution Margin - Fixed Cost = Net Income[/tex]

So first  step

$450 Sales - $270 Variable Cost = $180 Contribution Margin

Second:

180/450 = 40% CM ratio

Finally:

[tex]\frac{FixedCost+Target Profit}{Contribution Margin Ratio} = $Sales to Target Profit[/tex]

[tex]\frac{800,000+1,125,000}{0.40} = $4,812,500[/tex]
