Answer:
A particular product line is most likely to be dropped when:
- its total fixed costs are more than its contribution margin
- its variable costs are more than its fixed costs
- its unavoidable fixed costs are more than its contribution margin.
Explanation:
The aim of every producer is to maximize profit and to make this possible, the cost of producing a particular product should fall below the contribution margin.
In the case that the gross profit is always negative due to high cost of production, further production should be discouraged.
The decision to drop a particular product line is usually reached when:
- Its total fixed costs are more than its contribution margin: Here, the company will run at a loss. It is sustainable to continue production..
- Its variable costs are more than its fixed costs: This is also an unfavorable situation that does not sustain mass production. Therefore, further production should discontinue.
- its unavoidable fixed costs are more than its contribution margin: At this rate, profit cannot be maximized. It is a lose-lose situation for the company.

Answer:
$375
Explanation:
If Johnson will use the desired gross margin percentage to determine the selling price of its products, they must use the following formula:
selling price per unit = total manufacturing costs per unit / (1 - gross margin)
Total manufacturing costs = variable manufacturing costs + total fixed costs + batch level fixed overhead = $2,350,000 + $1,200,000 + $200,000 = $3,750,000
total manufacturing cost per unit = $3,750,000 / 20,000 units = $187.50
selling price per unit = $187.50 / (1 - 50%) = $187.50 / 50% = $375
