Rally must sell 1,080 units of Standard and 720 units of Deluxe

Explanation:

Standard Deluxe Total

Sales price per unit $45 $65

Less: Variable cost ($35) ($45)

Contribution Margin per unit $10 $20

Sales Mix units (A) $3 $2 $5

Contribution margin $30 $40 $70

Weighted average Contribution $14

per unit C= B/A

Appointment of fixed cost between standard and deluxe

Total Fixed cost = 14,700

Break even point = Fixed cost / Weighted average Contribution per unit

= 14,700 / 14

= 1,050

Apportionment of Break even point sales between Standard and deluxe in sales mix ratio (3:2)

Standard = 1,050 * 3/5 = 630

Deluxe = 1,050 * 2/3 = 420

Unit to be sold to get desired profit = Fixed cost + Desired profit / Weighted average Contribution per unit

= (14,700 + 10,500) / 14

= 1,800

Apportionment of Units to be sold to get desired profit between Standard and Deluxe in sales mix ratio (3:2)

Standard = 1,800 * 3/5 = 1,080

Deluxe = 1,800 * 2/5 = 720

To reach target operating income, Rally must sell 1,080 units of Standard and 720 units of Deluxe
