Explanation:

Contribution margin per unit

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable Costs

                                               A              B                 C

Sales price per unit           $200      $4,000        $5,220

Variable costs per unit      ($80)     ($1,000)      ($2,088)

Contribution Margin          $120      $3,000         $3,132

Contribution margin ratio

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution / Sales × 100

A = $120 / $200 × 100

   = 60%

B =   $3,000  / $4,000 × 100

   = 75%

C = $3,132 / $5,220 × 100

   = 60%

Units to break even

Units to break even = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin per unit

A = $73,200 ÷  $120

   = 610 units

B =   $660,000  ÷   $3,000

   = 220 units

C = $3,758,400 ÷   $3,132

   = 1,200 units

Sales dollars to break even

Units to break even = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio

A = $73,200 ÷  60%

   = $122,000

B =   $660,000  ÷   75%

   = $880,000

C = $3,758,400 ÷   60%

   = $6,264,000

Units to achieve target profit

Units to achieve target profit = Fixed Cost + Target Profit ÷ Contribution margin per unit

A = $73,200 + 266,760 ÷  $120

   = 2,833 units

B =   $660,000 + 3,000,000  ÷   $3,000

   = 1220 units

C = $3,758,400 + 3,132,000 ÷   $3,132

   = 2,200 units

answer assertive;

consumer credit. an advantage is that it allows consumers to afford expensive goods and services now, increasing their standard of living. however, a disadvantage is that it creates a trap for debt, if people do not have self control, they may see themselves filing personal bankruptcy.
