Title: Problem 21-4B
QA_Ori:
Part 1 Instructor note: Use the equation in Exhibit 21.12
2013 break-even in dollar sales = Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio
*To compute contribution margin ratio
Part 2 Instructor note: Use equation in Exhibit 21.12 with predicted numbers
2014 break-even in
dollar sales = Fixed costs / Contribution margin ratio
*To compute predicted fixed costs
$350,000
**To compute predicted contribution margin ratio
$15.00
Predicted contribution margin ratio ($37.50- $15) / $37.50) 60%

RIVERA COMPANY
Forecasted Contribution Margin Income Statement
For Year Ended December 31, 2014
Sales (20,000 x $37.50) $750,000
Part 4 Instructor note: Use equations in Exhibit 21.22 and 21.23 with predicted numbers
Required sales in dollars = (Fixed costs + Pretax income)
Contribution margin ratio
Required sales in units = (Fixed costs + Pretax income)
Contribution margin per unit
** Target after-tax income (given) $140,000
Pretax target income = After-tax target income / (1 – Tax rate)

RIVERA COMPANY
Forecasted Contribution Margin Income Statement
For Year Ended December 31, 2014
Sales (24,445 units x $37.50) $916,688
*Slightly greater than the targeted $140,000 income due to rounding of units from part 4.

Unit sales price and variable costs are computed in Part 1 and used in these
computations:
Part 4
If sales were to greatly increase, Product TT would experience the greater increase in
income because it would gain more contribution margin per unit than Product BB ($14
Part 5
Factors that could cause Product BB to have lower fixed costs include:
Labor arrangement that pays workers for units produced.
