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:

- 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?
