Klamath Company produces a single product. The projected income statement for the coming year is as follows: Required: 1. Compute the unit contribution margin and the units that must be sold to break even. 2. Suppose 10,000 units are sold above break-even. What is the operating income? 3. Compute the contribution margin ratio. Use the contribution margin ratio to compute the break-even point in sales revenue.
