Solution:-

here its idea solution.....please comment am right or wrong....

Part 1)
BEP Sales = Fixed/Contribution margin ratio
150000 = Fixed /84%
150000 = Fixed /0.84
Fixed = 150000 x 0.84
Fixed = 126000

Part 2)
Target contribution = Target profit + Fixed cost
Target contribution = 42000 + 126000
Target contribution = 168000

Part 3)
Contribution margin ration = Contribution margin / sales
0.84 = 168000/sales
Sales = 168000/0.84
Sales = 200000

Sales 200000
Less: Variable (3200)
Contribution margin 168000
Less: Fixed Cost (126000)
Profit 42000
