  1. COST VOLUME PROFIT (CVP) and breakeven analysis ANALYSIS [this topic is on the basis of Marginal costing technique] Basic assumptions Costs are either fixed or variable (if not then we will convert them) Variable cost per unit remains constant at all level of activity (output and sale) Total Variable production cost varies with production. Total variable selling cost varies with sales Production and sale will be different if there is stock. Total fixed costs remains constant. Per unit fixed cost varies inversely with the activity level Sale price per unit remains constant for every unit of product sold Per unit contribution: sale price per unit - variable cost per unit Conclusion: if both the sale price per unit and variable cost per unit are constant then it means contribution per unit will remain constant at all levels of sale. From this discussion, we can calculate contribution / sale ratio (CS ratio) or contribution margin ratio (CM ratio) as follows: Contribution Per Unit x100 Sale Pr icePerUnif Breakeven Analysis: Breakeven Point: It is the volume of sale in a period at which there is neither profit nor loss. (Means, Revenue = cost) As we know, Total cost + Profit = Sales OR Total variable cost + Total fixed cost + Profit = Sales At breakeven point profit is zero therefore; Or Or Or Or Or T.v.c + T.F.C + O -Sales T.F.C = Sales - T.V.C T.F.C= [Sale Price/unit x units] - [Variable cost/unit x Units] T.F.C= Units x [Sale Price/unit - Variable cost/unitl T.F.C= Units x Contribution/unit Breakeven units = Total Fixed cost Contribution/unit If breakeven is to be calculated in amounts then; (Breakeven units x Sale Price/unit) Or breakeven point expressed in sales revenue (directly) Breakeven point (in revenue) = Total fixed cost CS ratio Margin of safety: [Budgeted sales — breakeven sales] (units or amount) It is the maximum amount by which actual sales can be lower than budgeted sales without incurring a loss for the period. [if budgeted sales are not given then instead use given level of sales]
  2. Margin of safety Ratio: Margin of safety x 100 Budgeted sales (Answer will be in %age of budgeted sales) Calculation can either be on the basis of units or amount. Target Profit: Management might want to know what the volume of sale will be, in order to achieve a target profit. Target Profit (units) = Total fixed cost + Target profit Contribution/unit Or Target profit expressed in sales revenue = Total fixed cost + Target profit Practice Question: Q.

All other factors will remain same. You are required to answer the following: i. What will be the new breakeven point in terms of both units and rupees? ii. What level of sales will be required to earn at least same level of profit as before acquisition of new machine? [Spring 1999] Octa Electronics produces and markets a single product. Presently, the product is manufactured in a plant that relies heavily on direct labor force. Last year, the company sold 5,000 units with the following results: Sales Less: Variable expenses Contribution margin Less: Fixed expenses Net income Required: Rupees 22,500,000 13,500,000 6,300,000 2, 700,000 a) b) c) Compute the break-even point in rupees and the margin of safety. (04 Marks) What would be the contribution margin ratio and the break-even point in number of units if variable cost increases by Rs. 600 per unit? Also compute the selling price per unit if the company wishes to maintain the contribution margin ratio achieved during the previous year. (05 Marks) The company is also considering the acquisition of a new automated plant. This would result in the reduction of variable costs by 50% of the amount computed in (b) above whereas the fixed expenses will increase by 100%. If the new plant is acquired, how many units will have to be sold next year to earn net income of Rs. 3,150,000. (03 Marks) (Autumn 2008)
  6. Emerald Limited (EL) is engaged in the manufacture and sale of a single product. Following Q.3 statement summarizes the performance of EL for the first two quarters of the financial year 20X2: Rs in '000 Sales volume in units Sales revenue Cost of Goods sold Material Labor Factory overheads Gross Profit Selling and distribution expenses Administrative expenses Net Profit Quarter 1 580 000 493,000 (197,200) (98,600) (84,660) (380.460) 112 540 (26,500) (23,500) (50,000) Quarter 2 540 000 464,400 (183,600) (91,800) (80,580) (355.980) 108 420 (25,500) (23,500) (49,000) In the second quarter of the year EL increased the sale price, as a result of which the sales volume and net profit declined. The management wants to recover the shortfall in profit in the third quarter. In order to achieve this target, the product manager has suggested a reduction in per unit price by Rs. 15. The marketing director however, is of the opinion that if the price of the product is reduced further, the field force can sell 650,000 units in the third quarter. It is estimated that to produce more than 625,000 units the fixed factory overheads will have to be increased by Rs. 2.5 million. Required: (a) Compute the minimum number of units to be sold by EL at the reduced price in third quarter, to recover the shortfall in the second quarter profits as well as to earn the same profit as was in first quarter. (b) Determine the minimum price which could be charged to maintain the profitability calculated in (a) above, if EL wants to sell 650,000 units.

  8. Q.4 Altar Limited (AL) produces and markets a single product. Following information is available from AL's records for the month of February 2013: Sales price Direct material (2 kg at Rs. 5 per kg) Direct labor Variable overheads Fixed overheads Selling expenses Administration expenses (fixed) Production (Good units) Closing inventory Additional information: Rs. 26 per unit Rs. 10 per unit Rs. 2 per unit Rs. 4 per unit Rs. 3.50 per unit Rs. 295,000 Rs. 101 ,400 175,000 units 30,000 units Inspection is performed at the end of production and defective units are estimated at 20% of the inspected units. The defective units are sold as scrap at Rs. 5 per unit. Fixed overheads per unit are calculated on the basis of good units produced. iii. As compared to last month, selling expenses in February 2013 have decreased by Rs. 42,000. In January 2()13, AL produced and sold 180,000 units. Required: Assuming there was no inventory at the beginning of February 2013; calculate break-even sales in quantity for the month of February 2013. (12 Marks) (Spring2013) Remember that: Cost is not allocated to normal loss. If it has some recovery value it is adjusted against cost of production. In CVP analysis, fixed production cost is treated as a period cost rather than a product cost Cost is allocate to abnormal loss and if it has some recovery value then it is adjusted against cost of abnormal loss and then net amount is recognized as an expense in income statement. If there is no information about loss, then assume it is normal loss.
  9. MULTI-PRODUCT ANALYSIS (mixed break even) In some situations, businesses may be producing and selling more than one product. However, in this discussion it is assumed that more than one products are sold in a certain constant mix (percentage) The following budgeted information refers to two products of a company: Sale price per unit Variable cost per unit Contribution per unit Budgeted sale volume Sales Mix Fixed cost = Rs. 315,000 x 100 25 15,000 3 120 (111) 9 5,000 Break-even point in Batches: Fixed Cost Contribution/Batch Contribution per batch = 25x3 +9 x 1 = 84/batch = 315,000 + 84 = 3,750 Batches x 11,250 Units (3,750 x 3) Break-even in rupees x 11,250 x 100 Y = 3,750 x 120 Calculation of Break even in rupees directly 3, 750 Units (3,750 x 1) -450,000 T = 15,000 Units Total 1,575,000 = Fixed Cost + CS Ratio per batch CIS ratio per batch: Contribution per batch = 84 Revenue per batch C/S ratio per batch Breakeven revenue = 315,000 + 0.2 X (Revenue) (3,750 x3 x 100) = 420 (3 x 100) + (120 x 1) = (84/420) x 100 = 20 % of sales = 1,575,000 +420 -3,750 batches OR (300 + 420 x 1,575,000) Y (Revenue) (3750 x 1 x120 ) OR (120 + 420 x 1,575,000) -450,000

You are consulted to investigate the viability of marketing a new type of hand-held computer. With the help of the manager of research and development, the production manager, the buyer and the sales manager, you have made the following estimates of annual sales and profitability: Sales Units 12,000 15,000 18,000 Profit / loss) Rs. (30,000) 150,000 330,000 The selling price will be Rs. 150 / unit. Required: (a) Prepare a traditional break-even chart using the information given above. (Breakeven Chart). (b) Calculate the margin of safety if annual sales are expected to be 1 5,000 units and its percentage.
  16. A. 750,000 - WORKINGS: Difference (2,700,000) (2,370,000) 18,000 Sales Units 18,000 12 000 6.000 Sales Sales (at Rs. 150) Rs. 1 800 000 900.000 Profit Rs. 330,000 (30,000) An increase in sales from 12,000 units to 18,000 units results in an increase of Rs. 900,000 in revenue and Rs. 360,000 in contribution and profit. (because fixed cost will remain same). From this, we can calculate that the contribution is Rs. 60 per unit (Rs. and the C/S ratio is 0.40 (Rs. 360,000/Rs. 900,000). Variable costs are therefore 0.6 or 60% of sales. To draw a break-even chart, we need to know the fixed costs. Substitute in high or low equation When sales are: Sales (at Rs. 1 50 each) Variable cost (sales x 60%) Contribution (sales x 40%) Profit Therefore fixed costs When Sales are: (b) Fixed cost Variable cost (see above) Total cost 18,000 units (330,000) 750,000 18,000 units 750,000 12,000 units 720,000 30,000 750,000 12,000 units 750,000

The normal market growth is estimated at 5% per annum. However, the company plans to launch an aggressive marketing campaign for which additional advertising budget of Rs. 250 million has been approved. With increased advertisement, increase in sales volume for A, B and C has been forecasted at 15%, 12% and 10% respectively. Required: Compute the projected contribution margin for the year 2014 and the impact of advertising on profit of the company. Americano and Macchiato [Spring-20141 Q 11 Orient Stores Limited (OSL) operates retail outlets at various petrol pumps across the city. The average monthly performance of these outlets is as under: ales Rent expense ther fixed costs Rs. in '000 1,500 50 150 OSL earns contribution margin of 15% on items on which retail prices are printed. These items constitute 40% of the total sales. All other items are sold at the contribution margin of 25%. Sohaib Enterprises (SE) has offered OSL to establish an outlet at one of its petrol pumps located in a posh area of the city. OSL's planning department estimates that: At the proposed location, the sales volumes would be 20% lower than average. Being a posh area, OSL would be able to charge 10% higher prices on items on which retail prices are not printed. Other fixed costs would be the same as the average of the existing outlets.

Total power and fuel cost has been budgeted at Rs. 3 million. 80% of power and fuel cost would vary in accordance with the production. All remaining production overheads are variable. The sales and marketing budget includes the following: (i) Employment of two sales representatives at a monthly salary of Rs. 25,000 each and a sales commission of 2% on sales achieved. (ii) Hiring of a delivery van at Rs. 70,000 per month. (iii) Launching an advertisement campaign at a cost of Rs. 1.5 million. Required: Calculate the breakeven sales revenue and quantity for the next year if HR expects to earn a contribution margin of 40% on sales, net of 2% sales commission. (10) Q. 2 Auto Industries Limited (AIL) manufactures auto spare parts. Currently, it is operating at 70% capacity. At this level, the following information is available: reak-even sales Mar in of safet s. 125 million s. 25 million ontribution mar in to sales AIL is planning to increase capacity utilization through the following measures: Selling price would be reduced by 5% which is expected to increase sales volume by 30%. Increase in sales would require additional investment of Rs. 40 million in distribution vehicles and working capital. The additional funds would be arranged through a long-term loan at a cost of 15% per annum. Depreciation on distribution vehicles would be Rs. 5 million. As a result of increased production, economies of scale would reduce variable cost per unit by 10%. Required: • Prepare profit statements under current and proposed scenarios. • Compute break-even sales and margin of safety after taking the above measures. Note: if nothing is mentioned then depreciation is always a fixed cost. Interest on loan is also a fixed cost which neither varies with production nor sales.

IC is planning to acquire rights to produce and market a new brand of chemical namely Z-13 on payment of fee of Rs. 160,000 per month. In this respect the relevant information is summarized as under: Z-13 would be produced using the existing plant whose cost is Rs. 81 million. Processing would be carried out in batches of 2,000 litres of raw materials. Production costs per batch are estimated as under: Raw material: Imported Local Direct labour Variable production overheads 1 ,200 litres @ Rs. 1,5()() per litre 800 litres @ Rs. 900 per litre 4,000 hours @ Rs. 165 per hour @ Rs. 120 per direct labour hour (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) (vi) (vii) (viii) 1 , 700 litres of Z-13 is produced from each batch. 100 litres are lost by way of evaporation whereas 200 litres of input is converted into solid waste. The approximate weight of the solid waste is 225 kg per batch. Net volume of each bottle of Z-13 would be 1.25 litres. The solid waste would be refined to produce a by-product, polishing wax. Refining would cause an estimated loss of 2% of by-product output. Cost of refining and sales price of wax would be Rs. 250 and Rs. 400 per kg respectively. Net sales revenue (sales less refining cost) from sale of wax is to be deducted from the cost of the main product. Variable selling overheads are estimated at Rs. 175 per unit. The plant is depreciated at 10% per annum. It is estimated that production of Z-13 would utilise 20% capacity of the plant. To introduce Z-13, IC plans to launch a sales campaign at an estimated cost of Rs. 3.5 million. IC wishes to sell Z-13 at a contribution margin of 40% on sales. Required: Determine Z-13's sale price per unit and annual units to be sold, if IC intends to earn an incremental profit before tax of Rs. 10 million from its sale. (11)
