Lisa company is the exclusive distributor for an automobile product.


The product sells for tk. 40 per unit and has CM ratio 30%. The
company's fixed expenses are Tk. 180000.00 per year.
Required:
i) What is the variable expenses per unit?
ii) Using the equation method :
a) What is the break-even point in units and sales taka?
b) What sales level in units and in sales taka is required to earn an
annual profit of taka 60,000.00?
c) Assume that by using a more efficient shipper, the company is
able to reduce its variable expenses by Tk. 4 per unit . What is the
company's new break-even point in units and sales Taka?
iii) Repeat (ii) using the unit contribution method

Answer i)
We know
CM ratio = Contribution /sales
CM ratio = (selling price - VC per unit)/ selling Price
0.30
= (40-VC)/40
12
= 40-VC
VC
= 40 - 12
28 Per unit

Answer (ii) Equation Method


1) BEP in Units and Taka
We have
P = 40, V = 28 and FC = 180000.00
40x = 28x + 180000.00
40x - 28x = 180000.00
12x
= 180000.00
x
= 15000.00 Units
So, Break even in unit = 15000 units
Break-even point in sales taka = 40X1500 = 6,00,000.00 taka
2) Targeted sales in unit and taka
If targeted Profit Tk. 60000.00
We have
40x = 28x + 180000+ 60000.00
40x-28x =240000.00
12x
= 240000.00
x
= 20000.00 units
So, Break-even in unit =20000.00 units
Break-even point in sales = 40X 20000.00
= 8,00,000.00 Taka

BEP in Units and Taka (If VC changes)


If VC reduces by Tk. 4
We have
P = 40 V = 28 - 4 = 24 and FC = 180000.00
40x
= 24x + 180000.00
40x-24x = 180000.00
16x
= 180000.00
x
= 11250.00 units
So, Break even in Units
= 11250 units
Break-even point in sales taka = 40 X 11250
= 450000.00 Tk
Answer (iii) Unit contribution Method
1) BEP in Units and taka
BEP Units
= Fixed costs/Contribution Margin per Unit
= Fixed costs/(Selling Price-VC per Unit)
= (180000 - (40 -28)
= 180000/12
= 15000 Units
BEP in Taka
= Fixed Costs/CM Ratio
=180000/0.30
= 600,000.00 Taka

2) Targeted Sales in Units and Taka


Targeted sales in units
=( Fixed cost + Targeted Profit)/contribution Margin per unit
=(fixed cost + Targeted profit)/Selling Price - VC per Unit)
= (180000.00 + 60000.00)/(40-28)
=240000/12
=20000.00 Units
Tageted sales in Taka
= (fixed Cost + Targeted profit)/CM Ratio
=(180000+ 60000)/0.30
= 8,00,000.00 Taka
3) BEP in Units and Taka (if VC charge)
= BEP in units
= Fixed cost/Contribution Margin per unit
= Fixed costs/(Selling price- VC per unit)
= 180000/{40- (28-4)}
=180000/16
= 11250.00 Units
New CM ratio
=(Selling Price - VC per Unit)/Selling Price
=(40-24)/40
= 0.40
=40%
BEP in Taka
= Fixed Costs/CM Ratio
= 180000.00/0.40 = 4,50,000.00 Taka

1. DISCUSS THE USEFULNESS AND ASSUMPTIONS OF BREAK-EVEN
ANALYSIS ?
Answer :
The break even point is helpful in making decisions in business. It is a
simple tool defining the lowest quantity of sales which will include both
variable and fixed costs. Moreover such analysis facilitates the
managers with a quantity which can be used to evaluate the future
demand. If, in case the break even point lies above the estimated
demand, reflecting a loss on the product, the manager can use this
information for taking various decisions. It is also helpful in
recognizing the relevance of fixed and variable cost. The fixed cost is
less with a more flexible personnel and equipment thereby resulting in
a lower break-even point.

Assumption of Break-even analysis


1. Cost can be reasonably subdivided in to fixed and variable
components

Fixed costs and variable cost can be easily identified in most


cases. Fixed costs are depreciation, salaries, rent etc. variable
Cost are direct labor and materials cost.

Semi variable expenses can be problematic, but can nonetheless


be separated into fixed and variable components for analysis
purpose.
2. All cost volume Profit relationships are linear.
5

Assumption holds so long as analysis is confined


to reasonable range of operations.
If levels of operations are doubled, relationship may be different.
3. Sales prices will not change with changes in volume.
Economic theory states that one would normally expect price
increase to be accompanied by decrease in sales volume and vice
versa.
Assumption holds so long as analysis is confined to reasonable
range of prices.

2. The Paradise Shoe Company sells five different styles of ladies choppers with identical
costs and selling prices. The company is trying to find out the profitability of opening another
store which has the following expenses and revenues:
Per pair
Selling Price
Variable cost
Salesman commission
Total Variable cost

60000.00
2,00,000.00
80,000.00
20,000.00
3,60,000.00

Required :
i) Calculate the annual Break even point in units and in value. Also determine the profit or loss if
35,000 pairs of choppals are sold.
ii) The sales commission are proposed to be discounted, but instead a fixed amount of taka
90,000.00 is to be incurred in fixed salaries. A reduction in selling price of 5% is also proposed.
What will be the Break-even point in units?
iii) It is proposed to pay the store manager 50 paisa (tk 0.50) per pair a further commission.
The selling price is also proposed to be increased by 5%. What would be the Break-even point
in units?

iv) Refer to the original data. If the store manager were to be paid 30
paisa (tk 0.30) commission on each pair of choppal sold in excess of
Break-even point, what would be the store's net profit, if 50,000 pairs
were sold ?
SOLUTION
Requirement (i)
Contribution per unit

= Selling Price - Variable cost


= 30.00 - 21.00
= 9.00 tk
CM Ratio
= Contribution X 100
Sales
= (9 X 100)/30
= 30%
Break-even point (BEP) in unit
= Fixed expense/ Contribution
Margin
= 3,60,000.00/9
= 40,000.00 pairs
Break-even point (in value)
= Fixed expense/ CM ratio
= 3,60,000/0.30
= 12,00,000.00 taka.
Profit or loss for 35000 pairs sold
sales X CM ratio - Fixed cost
= 35000 X 30 X 30% - 360000.00
= 315000 - 360000
= -45000.00 tk (loss)

Requirement (ii)
Reduction of selling Price 5% = 30 30x5% = 28.50 tk
Sales commission = 0
Total Fixed expense = 360000 + 90000 =
450000.00
Contribution Margin

New Break-even point


Margin

= Selling Price - Variable Cost


= 28.50 - 19.50
= 9.00 Tk
= New fixed expense / contribution
= 450000/9
= 50,000.00 Units(pairs)

Requirement (iii)
Selling price 5% increase
= 30 + 30x5 = 31.50 Tk
New variable cost = 21.00 + 0.50 = 21.50
Tk
Contribution Margin
New Break-even Point

= Selling Price - Variable cost


= 31.50 - 21.50 = 10.00
= Fixed expense / Contribution Margin
= 360000/10
= 36000.00 units (pairs)

Requirement (iv)
Commission to be given to store manager
for 10000 (50,000-40000) units . So total excess commission to be given
is equal to 10000 X 0.30 = 3000.00 Taka.
Profit
= Selling Price - (variable cost + 3000) Fixed expenses
= 50000 X 30 - (50000 X 21 + 3000) 360000.00
= 15,00,000 - 10,53,000-360000
= 87000.00 tk
Or
Profit
= 50000 X 9 - 3000- 360000
= 87000.00

0.30
= (40-VC)/40
12
= 40-VC
VC
= 40 - 12
28 Per unit

10

Answer (ii) Equation Method


1) BEP in Units and Taka
We have
P = 40, V = 28 and FC = 180000.00
40x = 28x + 180000.00
40x - 28x = 180000.00
12x
= 180000.00
x
= 15000.00 Units
So, Break even in unit = 15000 units
Break-even point in sales taka = 40X1500 = 6,00,000.00 taka
2) Targeted sales in unit and taka
If targeted Profit Tk. 60000.00
We have
40x = 28x + 180000+ 60000.00
40x-28x =240000.00
12x
= 240000.00
x
= 20000.00 units
So, Break-even in unit =20000.00 units
Break-even point in sales = 40X 20000.00
= 8,00,000.00 Taka
BEP in Units and Taka (If VC changes)
If VC reduces by Tk. 4
We have
P = 40 V = 28 - 4 = 24 and FC = 180000.00
40x

= 24x + 180000.00
11

40x-24x = 180000.00
16x
= 180000.00
x
= 11250.00 units
So, Break even in Units
Break-even point in sales taka = 40 X 11250

= 11250 units
= 450000.00 Tk

Answer (iii) Unit contribution Method


1) BEP in Units and taka
BEP Units
= Fixed costs/Contribution Margin per Unit
= Fixed costs/(Selling Price-VC per Unit)
= (180000 - (40 -28)
= 180000/12
= 15000 Units
BEP in Taka
= Fixed Costs/CM Ratio
=180000/0.30
= 600,000.00 Taka
2) Targeted Sales in Units and Taka
Targeted sales in units
=( Fixed cost + Targeted Profit)/contribution Margin per unit
=(fixed cost + Targeted profit)/Selling Price - VC per Unit)
= (180000.00 + 60000.00)/(40-28)
=240000/12
=20000.00 Units

12

Tageted sales in Taka


= (fixed Cost + Targeted profit)/CM Ratio
=(180000+ 60000)/0.30
= 8,00,000.00 Taka

3) BEP in Units and Taka (if VC charge)


= BEP in units
= Fixed cost/Contribution Margin per unit
= Fixed costs/(Selling price- VC per unit)
= 180000/{40- (28-4)}
=180000/16
= 11250.00 Units
New CM ratio
=(Selling Price - VC per Unit)/Selling Price
=(40-24)/40
= 0.40
=40%
BEP in Taka
= Fixed Costs/CM Ratio
= 180000.00/0.40
= 4,50,000.00 Taka

The manufacturing of the candy have announced that they will
increase prices of their
products by 15 percent in the coming year. The company expects
that all other cost will
remain the same rates or levels as the current year.
Required :
(i) What is Hawaiian Candy Companys break-even point in boxes of
candy and in Taka
amount for the current year?
(ii) Calculate margin of safety and degree of operating leverage of the
current year.
what will be change in expected profit if expected sales are
increased by 15%.
(iii) What selling price per box must the company charge to cover the
15% increase in the cost of candy and still maintain the current
contribution margin ratio?

= 3.39

Sales increase by 15% , So Profit will be changed to 3.39 X 15% =


50.85%

(iii)

Contribution Margin = Sales Variable cost

2.40 = Sales (Cost of candy + Selling expense)


2.40 = Sales ( 2 + 2X15% + 0.40)
2.40 = Sales ( 2.30 + 0.40)

32

2.40 + 2.70 = Sales


So, Selling Price = 5.10 Taka per Unit

Ishrak company is the exclusive distributor for an automobile product.


The product sells for tk. 40 per unit and has CM ratio 30%. The
company's fixed expenses are Tk. 180000.00 per year.
Required:
i) What is the variable expenses per unit?
ii) Using the equation method :
a) What is the break-even point in units and sales taka?
b) What sales level in units and in sales taka is required to earn an
annual profit of taka 60,000.00?
c) Assume that by using a more efficient shipper, the company is
able to reduce its variable expenses by Tk. 4 per unit . What is the
company's new break-even point in units and sales Taka?
iii) Repeat (ii) using the unit contribution method

Answer i)
We know
CM ratio = Contribution /sales
CM ratio = (selling price - VC per unit)/ selling Price
0.30
= (40-VC)/40
33

12
VC

= 40-VC
= 40 - 12
= 28 Per unit

Answer (iii) Unit contribution Method


1) BEP in Units and taka
BEP Units
= Fixed costs/Contribution Margin per Unit
= Fixed costs/(Selling Price-VC per Unit)
= (180000 - (40 -28)
= 180000/12
= 15000 Units
BEP in Taka
= Fixed Costs/CM Ratio
=180000/0.30
= 600,000.00 Taka
2) Targeted Sales in Units and Taka
Targeted sales in units
=( Fixed cost + Targeted Profit)/contribution Margin per unit
=(fixed cost + Targeted profit)/Selling Price - VC per Unit)
= (180000.00 + 60000.00)/(40-28)
=240000/12
=20000.00 Units
Tageted sales in Taka
= (fixed Cost + Targeted profit)/CM Ratio
=(180000+ 60000)/0.30
34

= 8,00,000.00 Taka
3) BEP in Units and Taka (if VC charge)
= BEP in units
= Fixed cost/Contribution Margin per unit
= Fixed costs/(Selling price- VC per unit)
= 180000/{40- (28-4)}
=180000/16
= 11250.00 Units
New CM ratio
=(Selling Price - VC per Unit)/Selling Price
=(40-24)/40
= 0.40
=40%
BEP in Taka
= Fixed Costs/CM Ratio
= 180000.00/0.40
= 4,50,000.00 Taka

DECEMBER 2015 CVP ANALYSIS


Minden company introduced a new product last year for which it is
trying to find an optimal selling price. Marketing studies suggest
that the company can increase sales by 5000 units for each tk. 2
reduction in the selling price. The company's present selling price
is tk. 70 per unit and variable expenses are tk 40 per units. Fixed
expenses are 540000 per year. The present annual sales volume
(at the taka 70 selling price) is 15,000 units.
Required
1. What is the present yearly net operating income or loss ?
2. What is the present break-even point in units and in taka sales?
3. Assumes that the marketing studies are correct, what is the
maximum profit that the company can earn yearly. At how many
units and what selling price per units would the company generate
this profit?
4. What would be the break-even point in units and in sales taka
using the selling price you determine in (3) above(e.g the selling
price at the level of the maximum profits) ? Why is the break even
point different from the break-even point you computed in (2)
above ?
