Hi @rogersp188
So sorry for the mixup! We were in the middle of modifying the question.
Since EBIT is also generally = Revenue – Fixed Costs – Variable Costs, we wanted to make sure the EBIT number matched accordingly. Hence the question and answers have been modified slightly from @exam_whiz’s original version.
In our modified version:
EBIT
= Rev – FC – VC
= (15,000 x $10) – $12,000 – (15,000 x $7)
= $33,000The question should be fully fixed now. So sorry again for the mixup!
