Answer:

$62,984

Explanation:

Total sales:

= Product I49V + Product Z50U

= $51,000 + $56,000

= $107,000

Total variable expenses:

= Product I49V + Product Z50U

= $13,900 + $26,760

= $40,660

Contribution margin:

= Total sales - Total variable expenses

= $107,000 - $40,660

= $66,340

Contribution margin ratio:

= Contribution margin ÷ sales

= $66,340 ÷ $107,000

= 0.62 or 62%

Break even point:

= Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $39,050 ÷ 0.62

= $62,984
