Answer:

BEP_{dollars} = 500,000

Explanation:

<u>The first step</u> will be  get the contribtuion margin:

Sales\: Revenue - Variable \:Cost = Contribution \:Margin

800,000 - 6000,000 = 200,000

This is the amount after variables cost used to pay the fixed cost and make a gain.

Second, we calcualte the contribution margin ratio

\frac{Contribution \:Margin}{Sales\: Revenue} = Contribution\: Margin\: Ratio

200,000/800,000 = 0.25

Per dollar of sales 25 cents are available to pay the fixed cost.

Now, we calculate the break even point in dollars

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution\: Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

\frac{125,000}{.025} = 500,000
