THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
Cost-Volume-Profit (CVP) Analysis•Powerful tool for planning and decision making• As it emphasizes the interrelationships of costs,
quantity sold, and price, it brings together all of the financial information of the firm

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
• Two frequently used approaches to finding the break-even point• Operating income approach• Contribution margin approach
• Break-even point: the point of zero profit

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
• First step in implementing a units-sold approach to CVP analysis is to determine just what a unit is • Second step is to separate costs into fixed
and variable components• CVP focuses on the firm as a whole• All costs of the company—manufacturing,
marketing, and administrative—are taken into account

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
Basic Concepts for CVP Analysis •A useful tool for organizing the firm’s costs into fixed and variable categories is the contribution-margin-based income statement • Operating income: income before income taxes
(includes only revenues and expenses from the firm’s normal operations)
• Net income: operating income minus income taxes

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
The Equation Method for Break-Even and Target IncomeOperating income = Sales revenues – Variable expenses – Fixed expensesOperating income = (Price × Number of units) – (Variable cost per unit × Number of units) – Total fixed costs

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
The Equation Method for Break-Even and Target Income•Equation for a target profit put in terms of units
Units for a target profit = (Total fixed cost + Target income)/(Price - Variable cost per unit)
•Break-even equation when target income is zeroBreak-even units = (Total fixed cost + 0)/Price -
Variable cost per unitLO-1

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
Contribution Margin Approach•Contribution margin is sales revenue minus total variable costs•By substituting the unit contribution margin for price minus unit variable cost in the operating income equation, the following break-even expression is obtained • Number of units = Fixed costs/Unit contribution
margin

THE BREAK EVEN POINT AND TARGET PROFIT IN UNITS AND SALES REVENUE
Break-Even Point and Target Income in Sales Revenue•A units sold measure can be converted to a sales-revenue measure by multiplying the unit sales price by the units sold•To calculate the break-even point in sales revenue, variable costs are defined as a percentage of sales rather than as an amount per unit sold•The contribution margin ratio is the proportion of each sales dollar available to cover fixed costs and provide for profit LO-

AFTER TAX PROFIT TARGETS
• When calculating the break-even point, income taxes play no role because the taxes paid on zero income are zero• The after-tax profit, or net income, is
computed by subtracting income taxes from the operating income (or before-tax profit)Operating Income = Net income /(1-tax rate)

MULTIPLE PRODUCT ANALYSIS
• Direct fixed expenses: fixed costs that can be traced to each segment and would be avoided if the segment did not exist
• Common fixed expenses: fixed costs that are not traceable to the segments and that would remain even if one of the segments was eliminated

ASSUMPTIONS OF COST-VOLUME-PROFIT ANALYSIS
Assumptions of Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis•A linear revenue function and a linear cost function•Price, total fixed costs, and unit variable costs can be accurately identified and remain constant over the relevant range•What is produced is sold•For multiple-product analysis, the sales mix is assumed to be known•The selling price and costs are assumed to be known with certainty LO-

CHANGES IN THE CVP VARIABLES
Margin of Safety•Units sold or expected to be sold or the revenue earned or expected to be earned above the break-even volume•If a firm’s margin of safety is large given the expected sales for the coming year, the risk of suffering losses should sales take a downward turn is less than if the margin of safety is small

CHANGES IN THE CVP VARIABLES
Operating Leverage•Use of fixed costs to extract higher percentage changes in profits as sales activity changes•The greater the degree of operating leverage, the more that changes in sales activity will affect profits•The mix of costs than an organization chooses can have a considerable influence on its operating risk and profit level
Degree of operating leverage = Total contribution margin/Profit

CHANGES IN THE CVP VARIABLES
Sensitivity Analysis and CVP•A what-if technique that examines the impact of changes in underlying assumptions on an answer•It is relatively simple to input data on prices, variable costs, fixed costs, and sales mix and set up formulas to calculate break-even points and expected profits•Then, the data can be varied as desired to see what impact changes have on the expected profit

CVP ANALYSIS AND NON-UNIT COST DRIVERS
• Conventional CVP analysis assumes that all costs can be divided into variable and fixed costs• Costs are assumed to be a linear function of
sales volume
• An activity-based costing (ABC) system divides costs into unit and non unit based categories
