1.
To determine
Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis (CVP Analysis):
CVP Analysis is a tool of cost accounting that measures the effect of variation on operating profit and net income due to the variation in proportion of sales and product costs.
Break-Even Point:
Break-even point is a point of sales where company can cover all its variable and fixed costs. It is a point of sales where revenue generated is equal to the total costs. Thus, profit is zero at this level of sales.
Operating Income:
Operating income is the revenue generated from the routine course of business operations. Alternatively operating income can also be referred as the earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) which is the sum total of income after deduction of operational expenses.
To compute: Break-even points for product A, B and C.
2.
To determine
To compute: Operating income.
3.
To determine
To compute: New operating income.
