Cost – Volume – Profit Analysis

• Jeff Jamail is evaluating a business opportunity to sell cookware at trade shows. Mr. Jamail can buy the cookware at a wholesale cost of $210 per set. He plans to sell the cookware for $350 per set. He estimates fixed costs such as plane fare, booth rental cost, and lodging to be $5,600 per trade show.

• How many cookware sets must Mr. Jamail sell in order to breakeven?

Cost-Volume-Profit Relationship

There are 3 methods to analyze:

(1.) Contribution Margin per Unit(2.) Contribution Ratio(3.) Equation Method

NOTE: Each method yields the same results.

Cost-Plus Pricing Strategy

• It sets prices at cost plus a mark-up

• For example:– Product cost $20 to make– Mgmt decides to mark-up 30%– Selling Price = $20 + ($20 * 30%) = $26

Break-Even Point

Point where Total Revenue = Total Costs

Break-even Volume in Units =

Fixed Costs / Contribution Margin per Unit

Once fixed costs have been covered, net income will increase per unit contribution margin for each additional unit sold

Determining the Break-even Point

Bright Day produces one produce called Delatine. The company uses a cost-plus-pricing strategy; it sets prices at cost plus a markup of 50% of cost. Delatine cost $24 per bottle to manufacture, so a bottle sells for $36 ($24 + [50% × $24]). The contribution margin per bottle is:

Sales revenue per bottle 36$ Variable cost per bottle 24 Contribution margin per bottle 12$

The company’s first concern is if can sell enough bottles of Delatine to cover it fixed costs and

make a profit!


The break-even point is the point where total revenue equals total costs (both variable and

fixed). For Bright Day, the cost of advertising is estimated to be $60,000. Advertising costs are

the fixed costs of the company. We use the following formula to determine the break-even

point in units.

For Delatine, the break-even point in sales dollars is $180,000 (5,000 bottles × $36 selling price).


Once all fixed costs have been covered (5,000 bottles sold), net income will increase by $12 per

unit contribution margin.

What will be the increase in net income if units sold increase from 5,000 units to $5,600 units?

Matrix, Inc. manufactures one model of lawnmower the sells for $175 each. Variable

expenses to produce the lawnmower are $100 per unit. Total fixed costs are $225,000 per month, and management wants to earn a

profit in the coming month of $37,500. Matrix must sell the following number of

lawnmowers:

Effects of Changes in Sales Price

The Marketing Department at Bright Day suggests that a price drop from $36 per bottle

to $28 per bottle will make Delatine a more attractive product to sell. The president wants to know what such a price drop would have on

the company’s stated goal of producing a $40,000 profit.

You have been asked to determine the number of bottles that must be sold to earn

the $40,000 profit at the new $28 selling price per bottle. See if you can provide an answer

to the president before going to the next screen!

Target Costing

1. Determine the market price at which product will sell

• This is the Target Price

2. Must develop the product at a cost that will enable company to be profitable selling the product at the target price

• This is known as TARGET COSTING

Changes in Variable Costs

Bright Day is considering an alternative mixture for Delatine along with new packaging. This new

product would sell for $28 per bottle and have a variable cost per bottle of $12. The president is not in favor of the new product but wants to know how

many units must be sold to produce the desired profit of $40,000.

Calculating the Margin of Safety

The margin of safety measures the cushion between budgeted sales and the break-even point. It

quantifies the amount by which actual sales can fall short of expectations before the company will begin to incur losses. With a selling price of $28 per unit and variable costs of $12 per unit, and a desired

profit of $40,000, budgeted sales were:=

$30,000 + $40,000

Management considers a new product, Delatinethat has a sales price of $36 and variable costs

of $24 per bottle. Fixed costs are $60,000. Break-even is 5,000 units.

Management want to earn a $40,000 profit onDelatine. The sales volume to achieve this

profit level is 8,334 bottles sold.

Marketing advocates a target price of $28 perbottle. The sales volume required to earn a$40,000 profit increases to 25,000 bottles.

Target costing is employed to reengineer theproduct and reduces variable cost per unit to

$12. To earn the desired profit of $40,000, salesvolume decreases to 6,250 units.

Target costing is applied and fixed costs arereduced to $30,000. The sales volume to earn

the desired $40,000 profit is 4,375 units.

Decrease in Sales Price with an Increase in Sales Volume

The marketing manager believes reducing the sales price per bottle to $25 will increase sales volume by 625 units. Previous sales volume was:

Current Situation


Proposed Situation

Because budgeted income will fall by $5,000,

the proposal should be rejected!

Increased in Fixed Costs and Increase in Sales Volume

After the previous project was rejects, the advertising manager believes that buying an additional $12,000 in

advertising can increase sales volume to 6,000 units. The contribution margin will remain at $16. Should the

company buy the additional advertising?


Current SituationIncome

Proposed Situation

Profit = Contribution margin – Fixed cost

Profit = (6,000 × $16) – $42,000 = $54,000

Change in Several Variables

Management has been able to reduce variable costs to $8 per bottle and decides to reduce

the selling price per bottle to $25 (so the contribution margin is now $17). Further,

management believes that if advertising is cut to $22,000, the company can still expect sales

volume to be 4,200 units.

Should management adopt this plan?

Contribution Margin Ratio

The contribution margin ratio is the contribution margin divided by sales, computed using either total figures or per unit figures. Here is the total

dollar, per unit and contribution margin (CM) ratio for Bright Day when sales volume is 5,000

bottles.

Fixed Expenses (60,000) Net Income -$

Contribution MarginRatio Approach

= Contribution Margin / Sales

1st – Identify Contribution Margin $60,000

2nd – Identify Sales $180,000

= $60,000 / $180,000 = 0.33

What does this Ratio mean?

• Ratio means that every dollar of sales provides $0.33 to cover Fixed Costs

• After Fixed Costs are covered – Each $1 provides $0.33 of profit


Bright Day is considering the introduction of a new product called Multi Minerals. Here is

some per unit information about Multi Minerals:

Bright Day expects to incur $24,000 in fixed marketing costs in connection with Multi Minerals.

The Equation Method

At the break-even point:

Sales = Variable cost + Fixed cost

At the break-even point:

Sales = Variable cost + Fixed cost

Selling price per unit Variable cost per unit× = × + Fixed cost

Number of units sold Unmber of units sold

We can look at the above equation like this:

The Equation Method

Let’s use our information from Multi Minerals to solve the equation for the number of units sold.

20$ × Units = 12$ × Units + 24,000$ 8$ × Units =

Units =24,000$ 3,000

If we want to consider the desired profit of $8,000 the solution would be:

• Step 1: Find the CM for each– Product A = 100 – 40 = 60/unit– Product B = 200 – 60 = 140/unit

• Step 2: Find the total # of units sold– 10,000 + 20,000 = 30,000

• Step 3: Find the % sold of each product– Product A = 10,000 / 30,000 = 33%– Product B = 20,000 / 30,000 = 67%

• Step 4: Find the Weighted CM– Product A = $ 60 * 33% = $19.80 / unit– Product B = $ 140 * 67% = $93.80 / unit– Total CM = $19.80 + $93.80 = $113.60 / unit
