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
Breakeven Point:
The Breakeven point is the level of sales at which the net profit is nil. It can be explained as a situation where the business is generating a sale that is equal to the expenses incurred and hence no

- The total revenue function for a product is given by R=805 x dollars, and the total cost function for this same product is given by c=24500+70x+x square, where C is measured in dollars. For both functions, the input x is the number of units produced and sold. a. Form the profit function for this product from the two given functions. b. What is the profit when 26 units are produced and sold? c. What is the profit when 40 units are produced and sold? d. How many units must be sold to break even on this product?arrow_forwardCVP Analysis using a chart: The cost-volume-profit chart for Byron Manufacturing is shown. Use the graph to complete the sentences given below. SALES AND COSTS (Dollars) 20000 Sales 15000 Total Costs 10000 5000 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 UNITS OF SALES Byron Manufacturing reaches its break-even level of activity when it sells 500 -v units and generates $12,000 v in revenue, because at this level of activity the firm's revenue equals -v its total cost. In addition, you can determine from the chart that Byron Manufacturing's fixed costs are $6,000 -v and its price per unit is $24.00 V and variable cost per unit is $12.00 If fixed costs increase, what will happen to the break-even point? The break-even point will increase. If the price per unit decreases, what will happen to the break-even point? The break-even point will increase.arrow_forwardFind out BEP in units and value with the following data:Fixed cost - $50000Variable cost - $40 per unitSelling Price - $80 per unitCalculate:1) What will be the profit when the sales is $1000002) What will be the amount of sales if it desires to earn a profit of $15000arrow_forward
