As shown by these data, operating income is budgeted at $44,400 for the month, break-even sales dollars at $840,931.26, and break-even unit sales at 1,933.03.
Assume that actual sales for the month total $907,200 (2,100 units), with the CM ratio and per unit amounts the same as budgeted. Actual fixed expenses are the same as budgeted, $632,100. Actual sales by product are as follows: sinks, $226,800 (525 units); mirrors, $378,000 (1,050 units); and vanities, $302,400 (525 units).
