Write an equation for each item provided:Contribution margin per unit=_______Contribution margin ratio=_______Break-even in units=_______Break-even in dollars=_______Units required to achieve desired profit=_______Dollars required to achieve desired profit=_______Margin of safety ratio=_______ 

What will be an ideal response?


Contribution margin per unit = Unit selling price ? Unit variable cost
Contribution margin ratio = (Sales ? Variable costs) ÷ Sales
Break-even in units = Total fixed costs ÷ Unit contribution margin
Break-even in dollars = Total fixed costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio; alternatively, break-even in dollars = Break-even point in units × Unit selling price
Units required to achieve desired profit = (Total fixed costs + Desired profit) ÷ Unit contribution margin
Dollars required to achieve desired profit = (Total fixed costs + Desired profit) ÷ Contribution margin ratio; alternatively, dollars required to achieve desired profit = Units required to achieve desired profit × Unit selling price
Margin of safety ratio = (Budgeted sales ? Break-even sales) ÷ Budgeted sales
