Answer:

BEP $274,509.8

Explanation:

Product X sales weight 70%

Product Y sales weight 30%

X CMR 0.60 x 70% sales weight = 0.42

Y CMR 0.30 x 30% sales weight product Y = 0.09

Contribution mix 0.51

[tex]\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution \:Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}[/tex]

140,000 fixed cost / 0.51 = 274,509.8
