2. Suppose 10,000 units are sold above break-even. What is the operating income?

3. Compute the contribution margin ratio. Use the contribution margin ratio to compute the break-even point in sales revenue. (Note: Round the contribution margin ratio to four decimal places, and round the sales revenue to the nearest dollar.) Suppose that revenues are $200,000 more than expected for the coming year. What would the total operating income be?
