Solution

Answer

Existing Condition

Sales in units = $900,000 / $50 per unit

Sales in units = 18,000 Units

Variable Selling expenses = $5 per book

Variable Administrative expenses = 4% of Sales

COGS to Sales percent = (COGS / Total Sales) * 100

= (630,000 / 900,000) * 100

COGS to Sales percent = 70%

Sales (20,000 Units * $50)

1,000,000

Cost of Goods Sold ($1,000,000 * 70%)

(700,000)

Variable Selling Expenses (20,000 Units * $5)

(100,000)

Variable Administrative Expenses (4% * 1,000,000)

(40,000)

Contribution Margin

160,000

Sales (20,000 Units * $50)	1,000,000
