Learning Objective 05-P2: Compute the break-even point for a single-product company.
Skip to question
A company’s break-even point for a period is the sales volume at which total revenues equal total costs. To compute a break-even point in terms of sales units, we divide total fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit. To compute a break-even point in terms of sales dollars, divide total fixed costs by the contribution margin ratio.

- Learning Tasks A. Discussion Questions: 1. Explain why a contribution margin per unit becomes profit per unit above the breakeven point. 2. Suppose a firm with a contribution margin percentage of 30% increased its advertising expenses by P10,000 and found that sales increased by P 30,000. Was it a good decision to increase advertising expenses? Suppose that the contribution margin ratio is now 40%. Would it be a good decision to increase advertising expense? B.

Dinner cruise tickets sell for $50 per passenger. FunTime Cruiseline's variable cost of providing the dinner is $30 per passenger, and the fixed cost of operating the vessels (depreciation, salaries, docking fees, and other expenses) is $210,000 per month. The company's rel- evant range extends to 20,000 monthly passengers.arrow_forward
- APPLY THE CONCEPTS: Target income (sales revenue) Another useful method for figuring out the type of performance your company will need to reach a target income is by using sales revenue. Rather than using the number of units, this method uses total sales revenue. In companies for which the total set of goods produced and sold is more varied, this would be the preferred method, as opposed to a business in which only one product is sold. Assume a company has pricing and cost information as follows: Price and Cost Information Amount Selling Price per Unit $30 Variable Cost per Unit $15 Total Fixed Cost $15,000 For the upcoming period, the company wishes to generate operating income of $40,000. Given the cost and pricing structure for the company's product, how much sales revenue must it generate to attain its target income?
