Pattillo Industries makes a product that sells for $25 a unit. The product has a $5 per unit variable cost and total fixed costs of $9,000. At budgeted sales of 1,000 units, the margin of safety percentage is 45%, 55%, 64%, none of these

1 answer

BE = 900(25-5) = 450

Margin safety = budgeted - break even

1000-450 = 550

550(25)-450(25) = 2500

Percentage = 2500/(550*25) = 18.18%

None of these
