COST VOLUME PROFIT ANALYSIS (CVP)
Chapter three
Essentials of CVP Analysis
• Cost – Volume – Profit (CVP) analysis studies the behavior and relationship among the total revenues , total costs , and income as changes occur in the units sold, the selling price , the variable cost per unit, or the fixed costs of a product.
Contribution Margin
• Contribution margin indicates why operating income changes as the number of units sold changes.

Expressing CVP Relationships
• There are three methods related to CVP relationships:
1- The Equation method2-The contribution margin method3- The graph method
The Equation method
- - - = -
= x = x
Revenuesvariable
costs fixed costs operating income
Revenues selling price (SP)
quantity of units sold(Q)
Variable cost Variable cost per unit(VCU) quantity of units sold
The Equation method
x - x - = Selling price
quantity of units
sold
variable cost per
unit
quantity of units

fixed incom
e
operating income
contribution margin method Selling - variable cost x quantity of - fixed = operating price per unit units sold costs income
So: contribution margin x quantity of - fixed = operating per unit units sold costs income
Cost-Volume-Profit Assumptionsand Terminology
1- Changes in the level of revenues and costs arise only because of changes in the number of product (or service) units sold.2-Total costs can be separated into two component: a fixed component that does not vary with units sold and a variable component that changes with respect to units sold.
Cost-Volume-Profit Assumptionsand Terminology
3- When represented graphically, the behaviors of total revenues and total costs are linear (straight-line) in relation to units sold within the relevant range (and time period).4- selling price, variable cost per unit, and total fixed costs are known and constant
Break-Even Point Concept(BEP)
Chapter 3 15
The break-even point is the second key relationship in CVP analysis and is that quantity of output sold
at which total revenues equal total costs – both fixed and variable.
At break-even point, a business will have neither an income nor loss from operation that results in
$0 of operating income.
Chapter 3 16
example1:
Emma Frost sells each unit of product “GAMT”at $ 200. The variable cost per unit is $120. Total fixed cost is $ 2,000 per year.
How many units of “GAMT” must be sold in one year in order to break-even.
Solution
By using the three methods
Chapter 3 17
1- The Equation method
x - x - =
Setting operating income equal SR 0. and denoting quantity of output units that must be sold by Q.
Selling price

The Equation method
• per unit: 200X Q )- ($120 X Q) – $2000 = 0 $ 80 X Q= $2000 Q= $2000 / $80 = 25 units• Per revenues: 25 units x $ 200 selling price = $ 5000
2- contribution margin method
• x - =
• At the breakeven point, operating income is by definition $0 and so,
contribution margin per unit x breakeven number of units = fixed costs
=
contribution margin per unit
Quantity of units sold
Fixed costs
Operating income
breakeven number of units
fixed costs contribution margin per unit
contribution margin method
• Per units: breakeven units = 2,000 = 25 units• $80 per unit
• Breakeven revenues= 25 units x $200 per unit = $ 5000
contribution margin percentages method
contribution margin percentages = contribution margin per unit selling price = $80 = o.40 or 40% $ 200
Breakeven revenues = ____fixed costs contribution margin % = $ 2000 = $5000 40%
Target operating income in units
• Determine the quantity of units Emma must sell to earn an operating income of $1200. selling price is $200 , variable cost per unit $120 , fixed costs are $2000?
1-Equation Method
• Target operating income in units= ($200 x Q) – ($120XQ)- $2000 =$1200 $80 x q = $2000 =$1200 Q = $3200 = 40 UNITS $80 Q denotes the number of units required to be sold
2-contribution margin method
=
Quantity of unites require to be sold= $2000 + $1200 $80 per unit =40 units
Quantity of units to be sold= Fixed costs + Target operating ncome
Contribution Margin per unit
Proof:
• Revenue $200per unit x 40 units = $8,000Variable costs $120 per unit x 40 units= 4800Contribution margin $80 per unit x 40 units = 3200Fixed costs 2000operating income $1200
Target Net Income and Income Taxes
Net Income= Operating Income – Income TaxesFor example Emma me be interested in knwoing the quantity of units she must sell to earn net income of $960 assuming an income tax rate of 40%.Target net income = target - target x tax rate operating income operating income
Target Net Income and Income Taxes
Target net income = (target operating income) x ( 1 – Tax Rate ) target operating income = Target net income 1 – Tax Rate
= $ 960 = $ 1600 1 – 0.40Proof: Target operating income $1600 tax at 40% (0.40 x $ 1600) 640 Target net income 960
Target Net Income and Income Taxes
Quantity of units require to be sold = fixed costs + Target operating income contribution margin per unit = $2000 + $1600 = 45 units $80 per unit
Sensitivity Analysis and Margin of Safety
Sensitivity Analysis is a ,, what – if ,, technique that managers use to examine how an outcome will change if the original predicted data are not achieved or if an underlying assumption changes. = -

Contribution Margin Versus Gross Margin
• Gross Margin = revenues – cost of goods sold• Contribution Margin = revenues – all variables costs• Gross Margin measures how much a company can
charge for its products over and above the cost of acquiring or producing them.
• Contribution Margin indicates how much of a company’s revenues are available to cover fixed costs.
