ABM Innovations Inc. currently sells a product for P 120 per unit. The variable cost are
P 40 per unit, and 100,000 units are sold monthly and a profit of p 300,000 is realized
per month. A new design will increase and variable costs by 20% and fixed cost by
10%b but sales will increase to 120,000 per month.
(a) at what selling price does the company will have to break even, and
(b) if the selling price is to be kept same (P120/unit) what will the monthly profit be?
a) the selling price that the company will have to break even
Solution:
Cost :
Fixed 7,700,000
Profit 300,000
a) Given :
VC = 40 ● 1.20 % = 48/unit
FC = 77 ● 1.10 % = 84.70/unit
Solution :
Loss 1,524,000
Conclusion:
After we solve for the selling price we can say that the selling price to get the break
even point is 132.70 because if the selling price that we will use is 120 there is a loss
and for the second solution there is a loss of 1,524,000 and there’s no profit for that
month if the selling price is still the same.
