Concept introduction:

Cost Volume Profit (CVP) Analysis:

The Cost Volume Profit analysis is the analysis of the relation between cost, volume, and profit of a product. It analyzes the cost and profits at the different level of production, in order to determine the breakeven point and required the level of sales to earn the desired profit.

Contribution margin means the margin that is left with the company after recovering variable cost out of revenue earned by selling smart phones. The formula for contribution margin is as follows:

Contribution margin = Sales - Variable cost.

Similarly contribution margin ratio = Contribution/sales

Weighted Average Contribution Margin:

Weighted Average Contribution Margin is calculated for two products with the help of following formula:

Weighted Average Contribution Margin = (Contribution margin of Product A * Weight of product A)                                                                       + (Contribution margin of Product B * Weight of product B)

To calculate:

Cost Relationships The following costs are for Optical View Inc., a contact lens manufacturer:   Required Calculate and graph total costs, the total variable cost, and total fixed cost. For each level of output calculate the per-unit total cost, per-unit variable cost, and per-unit fixed cost. Using the results from requirement 2, graph the per-unit total cost, per-unit variable cost, and per-unit fixed cost, and discuss the behavior of the per-unit costs over the given output levels.
