Sales (13,000 units × $20 per unit) $ 260,000 Variable expenses 156,000 Contribution margin 104,000 Fixed expenses 116,000 Net operating loss $ (12,000) 20,100 Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses would increase by $56,000 each month. Assume that the company expects to sell 20,100 units next month. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one assuming that operations are not automated and one assuming that they are. (Show data on a per unit and percentage basis, as well as in total, for each alternative.) (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your percentage answers to the nearest whole number.)
