Break even point = Fixed cost / Contribution per margin 40,000= 20,000/Contribution per unit Contribution per unit comes to = 20,000/50,000 Contribution per unit = 0.5 Now, To calculate the profit Sales = 100000 (Given) - Variable cost = 50,000 ( Here variable cost is calculated by subtracting Sales - Contribution) = Contribution = 50,000 (Sales*0.5) - Fixed cost = 20,000 ( Given) = Profit = Rs 30,000 Ans . Now to calculate Contribution/Sales ratio Contribution calculated is 50,000 Sales = 100,000 So, 50,000/100,000 = 1/2 or 0.5 Ans
