Document Summary

Uses a cvp income statement format to present sales and cost data (internal use only) Sales mix and impact on target sales- The relative percentage in which a company sells its products. If a company"s unit sales are 80% printers and 20% computers, its relative unit sales mix is 80% to 20% (4:1) Sales mix of expected unit sales is important because different products often have very different contribution margins per unit. Companies can compute break-even sales for a mix of two or more products by determining the weighted-average unit contribution margin of all the products. Determine the weighted-average (unit) contribution margin per unit. Use the weighted-average unit contribution margin per unit to compute the break-even point. Use the weighted-average unit contribution margin per composite. Unit (cu) to compute the break-even point (composite unit) Works well (it is necessary) if the company has many products. Unit method is impractical when you have a large product mix.
