| Direct materials | $0.22 |
| Direct labor | 0.51 |
| Variable factory overhead | 0.62 |
| Variable selling expense | 0.15 |
Solution
1) Break even point = (422822+57658)/(3.10-1.50) = 300300 Units
2) Unit variable cost = (0.22+0.51+0.62+0.15) = 1.50 per unit
Unit variable manufacturing cost = (0.22+0.51+0.62) = 1.35 per unit
in cost volume profit analysis unit variable cost used.
3) Required unit sales = (422822+57658+11680)/1.60 = 307600 Units
4) Sales revenue = 307600*3.1 = $953560
