- Determine the break-even level using the above table and use the following Equation to confirm the break-even level of output.
PQB = FC + VQB
PQB - VQB = FC
QB (P-V) = FC
QB = FC
P-V
- What would happen to the total revenue schedule, the total cost schedule, and the break-even level of output if management determined that fixed costs would be $10,000 instead of $6,000?
