Question

Prepare a CVP income statement for 2014 based on management’s estimates.

Calculate variable cost per bottle.

Compute the break-even point in (1) units and (2) dollars

Compute the contribution margin ratio and the margin of safety ratio.

Determine the sales dollars required to earn net income of $ 243,300

Jorge Company bottles and distributes B-Lite, a diet soft drink. The beverage is sold for 60 cents per 16-ounce bottle to retailers, who charge customers 77 cents per bottle. For the year 2014, management estimates the following revenues and costs.
Sales $ 1,807,900 Selling expenses—variable $ 65,700 Direct materials 427,900 Selling expenses—fixed 65,300 Direct labor 355,300 Administrative expenses—variable 31,014 Manufacturing overhead—variable 313,300 Administrative expenses—fixed 62,000 Manufacturing overhead—fixed 286,600

Explanation / Answer

                           CVP Income statement for 2014

                            Particulars                              Amount

                                        Sales                                   1,807,900

                      Less: Variable costs

                                  Direct material         427,900

                                  Direct Labor             355,300

                          Manufacturing overheads   313,300

                                Selling expenses          65,700

                         Administrative expenses     31,014       (1,193,214 )

                    Less: Fixed costs:

   Manufacturing overheads 286,600

   Selling expenses         65,300

   Administrative expenses 62,000    ( 413,900)

                                    Net Profit                     200,786

      Here, Number of bottles = 1807900/0.60 = 3,013,167 bottles

   2. Variable cost per unit = Total variable cost/ Total units sold= 1,193,214 / 3013167 = 39.6 cents per unit

   3. Break even point in units = Total fixed costs / Contribution per unit

                                            = 413900 / [0.60-0.396 ]

                                           = 2,028,922 units

        Break even point in dollars = Break even units * selling price per unit

                                               = 2,028,922 * 0.60

                                               = $ 1,217,353

    4. Contribution margin ratio = Contribution/Sales * 100 = {[1807900 - 1193214] / 1807900} *100

                                                                                    = 34%

         Margin of safety ratio = Total sales(units) - Break even sales = [3013167 - 2028922 ] / 3013167 = 32.66%

   5. Sales dollars require to earn a net income of $243,300:

                       Here Margin of safety sales= 243,300/ 34% = $715,588

                                     Break even sales, we know = $ 1,217,353

                            Total sales = Break even sales + margin of safety sales

                                            = 1,217,353+ 715,588

                                            = $ 1,932,941

                                          

         Check:     Net Income= contribution - fixed costs = [1932941 * 34% ]- 413900 = $ 243,300
