The breakeven point is the point at which the?

where all your Fixed Costs are covered. To find the number of units at which you will breakeven you divide fixed costs by the contribution per unit


How do you calculate breakeven point?

breakeven point (units) = fixed costs/contribution contribution = selling price - variable costs per unit


If a firms fixed financial costs decrease the firms operating breakeven point will do what?

decrease <--------WRONG!!!!! The operating breakeven point will remain unchanged.


What does breakeven point mean?

Breakeven Analysis is the process of categorizing costs of production between variable and fixed components and deriving the level of output at which the sum of these costs, referred to as total costs per unit become equal to sales revenue. The analysis helps to determine the 'Breakenev Point' from this point of equality of sales revenue with total costs. At the breakeven point, the production activity neither generates a profit nor a loss. Breakeven analysis is used in production management and Management Accounting.


Breakeven point in units?

The Formula of Breakeven point (in units)= Fixed Cost / Contribution per unit


If variable labor costs decline other things are held constant how will this effect a firms breakeven point?

breakeven point will decrease


How do you calculate the breakeven point?

Formula for Breakeven point: Breakeven point = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin ratio Contribution margin ratio = Sales / contribution margin Contribution margin = sales - variable cost


How to calculate break even point when the fixed costs associated with providing the food is 150000 the variable cost per meal is 1.00 the price of meals is 4.00 per meal?

Breakeven point = fixed cost / contribution margin ratio Contribution margin ratio = 4 - 1 = 3 /4 = .75 Breakeven point = 150000 .75 = 200000


Produce 60000 variable costs equal 50 percent fixed costs total 120000 what price stero sold to achieve EBIT of 95000?

Breakeven point = Fixed cost + EBIT / contribution margin ratio Contribution margin ratio = sales price - variable cost Contribution margin ratio = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5 or 50% Breakeven point = 215000 / .5 = 430000


What is the break-even point when variable costs are 20 percent of total revenue and fixed costs are 40 million per year?

Break even point = Fixed Cost / contribution margin ratio Variable cost = 20% So Contribution margin = 80% Breakeven point = 40000000 / .8 = 50000000


What happens to break even point if fixed cost increase and variable cost decrease?

If fixed cost is increased it means more number of units are required to cover fixed cost that's mean breakeven point will increase as well. If variable cost reduces then it means there is increase in contribution margin and contribution margin ratio which means that less number of units will be required to cover fixed cost hence breakeven point will reduce.


When fixed cost decreases what does this do for the break-even point?

When fixed assets reduces it also reduces the breakeven point because now less number of units required to fulfill the fixed cost.
