Answer :

Answer:

$490,000.

Explanation:

To find out sales of Opal Company we will use below equation,

Sales = Variable cost + Fixed cost + Target profit

variable cost margin will be (1 - contribution margin)

= 0.7 (1 - 0.3)

we will consider sales as x,

x = 0.70x + $49,000 + 0.20x

x = 0.90x + $49,000

x - 0.90x = $49,000

x = $49,000 / 0.10

x = $490,000.

Sales = $490,000.
