    Hi,

    Seek for your guidance on the below question. Which of these method / answer is correct?

    Mabel Co manufactures and sells tables and chairs in a standard mix of one table to four chairs.

    The following information is available:

    Product Table Chair
    Variable cost per unit ($) 120 16
    Contribution sales ratio 0.4 0.6

    Annual fixed costs are $100,000.

    What is the break-even point in sales revenue (to the nearest hundred dollars)?

    Method 1 ( BPP book)

    BEP in sales rev. = FC ÷ weighted avg C/S ratio
    = 100,000 ÷ [(0.4 x 1) + (0.6 x 4) ÷ (1 + 4)
    = $ 178,571.43

    The correct method is the method that I show in my free lectures on multi-product CVP analysis.
