Answer:
$460,000
Explanation:
The computation of the margin of safety in dollars is shown below:-
Break even sales = fixed cost ÷ contribution per unit
= $480,000 ÷ $80
= 6,000 units
The Margin of safety in dollars = Total sales - Break even sales
= 8,300 - 6,000
= 2,300
sale price = $1660000 ÷ 8,300
= $200 per unit
margin of safety in dollars = 2,300 × $200
= $460,000
