Curtis Parker admired his wife's success at selling scarves at local crafts shows, so he decided to make two types of plant stands to sell at the shows. Curtis makes twig stands out of downed wood from his backyard and the yards of his neighbors, so his variable cost is minimal (wood screws, glue, and so forth). However, Curtis has to purchase wood to make his oak plant stands. His unit prices and costs are as follows: Twig Stands Oak Stands Sales price. . . . . . . . . . . . . $13.00 $30.00 Variable cost. . . . . . . . . . . $2.50 $7.00 The twig stands are more popular, so Curtis sells four twig stands for every one oak stand. Jennifer charges her husband $455 to share her booth at the craft shows (after all, she has paid the entrance fees). How many of each plant stand does Curtis need to sell to breakeven? Will this affect the number of scarves Jennifer needs to sell to breakeven? Explain I DONT NEED THE FULL ANSWER, JUST WHATS MISSING IN THE PICTURE. Determine how many of each plant stand Curtis needs to sell to breakeven. Begin by computing the weighted-average contribution margin per unit.
