Cost Volume Profit Analysis<\/span><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

The cost volume profit analysis (CVPA) is also known as breakeven analysis.<\/span><\/p>\n

CVPA determines the\u00a0breakeven point\u00a0for different\u00a0sales\u00a0volumes and cost structures. <\/span><\/p>\n

It can be useful for managers for making short-term business decisions. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CVPA makes several assumptions; sales price,\u00a0fixed cost and variable cost\u00a0per unit are constant in CVPA. <\/span><\/p>\n

CVPA also manages contribution margin. <\/span><\/p>\n

The contribution margin is the difference between total sales and total variable costs. <\/span><\/p>\n

The main motive of the business is to earn the profits.<\/span><\/p>\n

For profit, the contribution margin must be exceed to total fixed costs. <\/span><\/p>\n

The contribution margin may also be calculated per unit. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the cost volume profit analysis, we will study the following:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Contribution margin<\/span><\/p>\n

Profit volume ratio, contribution margin ratio<\/span><\/p>\n

Determination of selling price, selling price per unit<\/span><\/p>\n

Break Even Point Analysis<\/span><\/b><\/b><\/h2>\n

Break-even point analysis is the relationship between cost volume and profits at various levels of activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under this system, variable cost, fixed cost, volume and changing profit are analyzed.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

Break-even point<\/span> analysis is the part of cost volume profit analysis. <\/span><\/p>\n

It tells us about the level of sales where revenue equal to expenses viz total cost is equal to total sales. <\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, if there is no profit<\/span><\/b>, no loss<\/b> <\/span>that is called break-even point<\/span><\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is the important tool for profit planning. <\/span><\/p>\n

If the production or sales is higher than breakeven point, there is profit. <\/span><\/p>\n

In the same way, if there is production or sales less than breakeven point, there is loss.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are three types of breakeven point:<\/span><\/p>\n

Assumption under breakeven point analysis<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

While calculating BEP, following assumption keep in mind:<\/span><\/p>\n

All cost can be classified into fixed cost and variable cost viz no place for semi-variable cost <\/span><\/p>\n

Fixed cost will remain constant (invariable) but variable cost are vary (fluctuate)<\/span><\/p>\n

Selling price per unit remains constant (invariable). <\/span><\/p>\n

It is not changed during the period<\/span><\/p>\n

Production and sales remain unchanged during the period<\/span><\/p>\n

Changing in opening stock and closing stock are not significant (important)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Advantages of break-even analysis | Usage of break-even analysis<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n

The major advantages of break-even analysis are as follows: <\/span><\/p>\n

It measure profit and losses at different levels of production and sales.<\/span><\/p>\n

It helps to predict the effect of changes in sales prices.<\/span><\/p>\n

It analyzes the relationship between fixed and variable costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

It predicts the effect of cost and efficiency changes on profitability.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Disadvantages of break-even analysis | Limitations of break-even analysis<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n

The major disadvantages of break-even analysis are as follows: <\/span><\/p>\n

It assumes that sales prices are constant at all levels of output.<\/span><\/p>\n

It assumes production and sales are the same.<\/span><\/p>\n

Break even charts may be time consuming to prepare.<\/span><\/p>\n

It can only apply to a single product or single mix of products.<\/span><\/p>\n

Break-Even Analysis under Changed Situation<\/span><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

The prices of most products are affected according to demand and supply. <\/span><\/p>\n

Economics tells \u201cmore supply decrease price and less supply increase price.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Demand and supply change variable cost, fixed cost and selling price. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to syllabus, there are three changing:<\/span><\/p>\n

Change on variable cost<\/span><\/p>\n

Change on fixed cost<\/span><\/p>\n

Change on selling price<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Under manufacturing expenses, cost of raw materials, labour charge and direct expenses etc are changed. <\/span><\/p>\n

Under operating expenses, office expenses, administrative expenses etc are changed. <\/span><\/p>\n

These changes effects different cost. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Margin of Safety<\/span><\/b><\/b><\/h3>\n

Sales beyond the breakeven point is called margin of safety. <\/span><\/p>\n

It is the difference between the budgeted sales and breakeven point sales. <\/span><\/p>\n

Margin of safety is also known the excess production over the breakeven point output. <\/span><\/p>\n

Margin of safety gives some profit. <\/span><\/p>\n

Breakeven point covers only upto fixed cost (viz. cost of materials + variable cost + fixed cost).<\/span><\/p>\n

Sales more than BEP are the profit. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sales less than BEP are loss. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sales equal to BEP means no profit no loss. <\/span><\/p>\n

If manufacturing company is suffering from losses, company cannot pay operating expenses. <\/span><\/p>\n

Machine \u2018A\u2019 would have fixed costs of $30,000 per year and would yield a profit of $30,000 per year on the sale of 10,000 units. Machine \u2018B\u2019 would have fixed cost of $18,000 per year and would yield a profit of $22,000 per year on the sale of 10,000 units. Variable costs behave linearly for both machines. <\/span><\/p>\n

Required: (a) P\/V Ratio; (b) Break- even sale for each machine; (c) Sales level where both machines are equally profitable;<\/span><\/p>\n

(d) Range of sales where one machine is more profitable than other.<\/span><\/p>\n
