Explanation:

                                              Variable costs                   Fixed costs

Materials                                  $200,000                        $500,000

Other                                        $250,000                        $800,000

DVDs:

materials = $700,000 x 50% = $350,000 ($250,000 fixed)

Other = $1,050,000 x 60% = $630,000 ($480,000 fixed)

total = $980,000

CDs:

materials = $350,000 ($250,000 fixed)

Other = $420,000 ($320,000 fixed)

total = $770,000

Expected sales:

CDs 400,000 packs

DVDs 500,000 packs

since the company wants to earn $100,000 in profits, it should charge:

400,000X - $770,000 + 500,000Y - $980,000 = $100,000

400,000X + 500,000Y = $1,850,000

Y = 1.2X (we replace Y)

400,000X + 600,000X = $1,850,000

1,000,000X = $1,850,000

X = $1,850,000 / 1,000,000 = $1.85 per CD pack

Y = $1.85 x 1.2 = $2.22 per DVD pack

profits for selling CDs = ($1.85 x 400,000) - $770,000 = -$30,000

profits for selling DVDs = ($2.22 x 500,000) - $980,000 = $130,000
