If this company is considering building 10,000
units this year (and needs money for the entire
year allotted to it now for this purpose), for how
much should the president ask?
6. Contribution Margin (price per unit X * # of
units sold) - (variable
cost per unit X * units
sold)
7. Breakeven Breakeven =

bution Margin per unit
8. A company is making a product and has invested [($75,000*5) +
$100,000 on an advertising campaign and $75,000 $100,000] / $50/unit =
each on five salespeople (annual salary, including 9,500 (breakeven lev-
benefits and support). These are the only fixed el in units)

16. True/False: the Contribution Margin is the amount True: the contribu-
that can be contributed to fixed costs. tion margin is the
amount the compa-
ny receives from the
sales of its product
minus the product's
variable costs. There-
fore, the amount re-
maining (after vari-
able costs) can be
used to pay the com-
pany's fixed costs.
17. True/False: When the following equation hold true, True
we are at the breakeven level in dollars:
Sales - Variable Costs = Fixed Costs
18. True/False: for the equation 2x - 3y = 6, the x and y True
intercepts are x=3, y=-2

number preceding it, you will divide both sides of
the equation by this number, which is known as
the:
A) base
B) power

E) none of the above
20. To separate an unknown variable from its expo- multiply the exponent
nent one should: by its inverse
