Cost
Break-even point is a condition where total revenue equals total cost and profit is equal to zero BREAK-EVEN POINT
Break-even point (pesos) =
Total Fixed Cost / Contribution
Margin Rate
Break-even point (units) =
Total Fixed Cost / Contribution
Margin per unit
Break-even formula:
Break-even point in Pesos:
Break-even point in units: BEPp = FC/CMr
BEPu = FC/CMu
Where:
where:
FC = Fixed cost
FC = Fixed cost
CMr = Contribution margin rate CMu = Contribution margin per unit Other Formula: where: CM = S – VC
CM = Contribution margin
CM/u = SP – VC/u S = sales
CMR = CM ÷ S
VC = variable cost
VCR = VC ÷ S
VCR = Variable cost rate
CMR + VCR = 100% CM/u = Contribution margin unit
VC/u = Variable cost per unit
Consider the following data:
Sales (10,000 units @10)
