Contribution Margin

1. a.) Contribution per CD unit:

                  Unit Selling ? Variable Costs
          $9.00 ? 1.25 - .35 ? 1.00 = $6.40
 
                         $6.40  

     b.) Break-even volume in CD units and dollars:

       ($275,000 + 250,000) / 6.40  = 82,032 units

                   82,032 * $9.00 = $738,288 to break even  

       c.) Net profit if 1 million CD's sold:

                     1,000,000 * 6.40 = 6,400,000

             6,400,000 ? 525,000 = $5,875,000

        d.) Necessary CD unit volume to achieve $200,000 profit

                     6.40 (x) - $525,000 = 200,000

                        x = 113,282 units needed

2. a.) Unit contribution and contribution margin:

                      $20 ? 4.00 - .50 - .50 = $15 unit contribution
