    Contribution margin=Sales-Variable cost

    = (60-21) = $39

    Target Contribution margin=Fixed costs+Target profits

    = (78000+81900) = $159900

    1. Number of pairs of shoes = (159900/39) = 4100

    2.

    Sales (4100*60) = 246000

    Total variable cost (4100*21) = 86100

    Total Contribution margin = $159900

    Total fixed cost = 78000

    Operating income = $81900.
