Answer:
a. $120
b. 5,000 units
Explanation:
(a) The formula to compute the contribution margin unit is shown below:
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable expense per unit
= $200 - $80
= $120
(b) The formula to compute the break even point is shown below:
= (Total annual fixed manufacturing and operating costs) ÷ (Contribution margin per unit)
= $600,000 ÷ $120
= 5,000 units
