Break-even Analysis
Break even analysis also called cost-volume profit analysis helps in finding out the relationship of cost & revenue to the output. The analysis can be done only after calculating the Break even Point BEP. BEP is defined as that level of sales at which the total cost equals total revenue ie the sales level at which there is no profit or no loss. BEP is calculated using the following formula: BEP= fixed expense/contribution per unit where the contribution is sales minus variable cost per unit.This will be in units. BEP=fixed expense* sales/Total contribution where contribution is the total sales minus the total variable expense.This will be in Rupees.
Break-even Analysis
For calculating BEP, it is essential to classify the expense into fixed expenses and variable expenses. The break-even point shows the level of sales at which there is no profit or loss.This information is of immense use to the units because it gives the minimum level at which the unit should operate, at given cost and price to start generating profits.
Fixed cost
Break-even Analysis
Break-even Analysis
Break even analysis is useful in the following areas: Determining product mix. This is done by knowing the contributions of different products and choosing the products in such a way the the total contribution is maximized. Make or buy decisions. If the variable cost is less than the price that has to be paid to an outside supplier, it may be better to manufacture than buy. Knowing profits at given sales volume and finding the effects of changes in fixed and variable costs to profits. In case of SSI units it is essential that the break-even point is as low as possible. This can be ensured by minimizing the fixed expenses or increasing the contribution. However the contribution is dependent on market condition, it is necessary to keep the fixed expenses at the minimum level.
