Answer:

Please see solution below

Explanation:

a. Break even in dollar sales

= [ Fixed cost / Contribution margin ] × Selling price per unit

Fixed cost = $140,000

Selling price per unit = $70

Variable expenses per unit = $42

BEP in dollars = [$140,000 / $70 - $42] × $70

= $350,000

b. Margin of safety percentage

= [ Current sales level - Break even point / Current sales level ] × 100

Current sales level = 10,000 units

Break even point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin

= $140,000 / $70 - $42

= 5,000 units

Margin of safety = [10,000 - 5,0000/10,000 ] × 100

= 50%

C. Degree of operating leverage.

= Contribution margin / Net operating income

Contribution margin = $70 - $42 = $28

Net operating income

Sales ($70 × 10,000)

$700,000

Less Variable cost ($42 × 10,000)

$420,000

Contribution margin

$280,000

Less Fixed cost

$140,000

Net operating income

$140,000

Degree of operating leverage = $280,000 / $140,000

= 20%

D. Percentage in net income

Sales ($70 × 12,000)

$840,000

Less variable cost

$420,000

Contribution margin

$420,000

Less fixed cost

$140,000

Net operating income

$280,000

Percentage change in net income

= [$140,000 / $280,000] × 100

= 50%
