APPLY THE CONCEPTS: Target income (sales revenue) Another useful method for figuring out the type of performance your company will need to reach a target income is by using sales revenue. Rather than using the number of units, this method uses total sales revenue. In companies for which the total set of goods produced and sold is more varied, this would be the preferred method, as opposed to a business in which only one product is sold. Assume a company has pricing and cost information as follows: Price and Cost Information Amount Selling Price per Unit $30   Variable Cost per Unit $15   Total Fixed Cost $15,000   For the upcoming period, the company wishes to generate operating income of $40,000. Given the cost and pricing structure for the company’s product, how much sales revenue must it generate to attain its target income? Step 1: Calculate the contribution margin ratio: The contribution margin ratio is the contribution margin in proportion to the selling price on a…

First step - you need to understand each individual components of the income statement (also called a Profit & Loss Statement or P&L Statement):  Sales (Revenue)  The sales figure represents the amount of revenue generated by the business. It is calculated as the total of the number of units sold multiplied by the selling price per unit.  The amount recorded here is the total sales, minus any product returns or sales discounts. Cost of Goods Sold This number represents the costs directly associated with making or acquiring your products. Costs include materials purchased from outside suppliers used in the manufacture of your product, as well as any internal expenses directly expended in the manufacturing process. In a service business where you, as the owner, are the only expense in supplying the service, and you do not pay yourself a salary beyond the company profits, your service expense may be zero. However, in a service business where you pay yourself a salary or have…
