Okay, this problem tells us that this person sells vacuums for $60 each and sells 1 ,200 units.
00:07
The variable costs are $20.
00:11
Then for shampoos, they sell for $100 at 2 ,800 units, and the variable costs there are $60.
00:19
The fixed costs are $80 ,000 for the company, and they want to know what's the break -even point.
00:25
So what we need to do to find the break -even point is do total fixed costs, which is this, divided by the weighted average contribution margin per unit.
00:38
So that is what we have to find first.
00:41
So to do that, let's look at vacuums first.
00:49
So vacuums sell for 60, but the variable costs are 20.
00:53
So that leaves you with $40.
00:56
So if i take the 40 and i multiply that that by how much they sell.
01:05
40 times 1 ,200 is 4 ,800...
