SALES *CONTRIBUTION + VC *AS A % OF NET PROFIT *BREAK-EVEN(BE) + MARGIN OF SAFETY(MOS)
BREAKEVEN (BE) =FIXED COST/CM%>>>TOTAL =FIXED COSTS/CM>>>UNITS
MARGIN OF SAFETY & MARGIN OF SAFETY RATIO MOS=SALES-BE MOS%=(SALES-BE)/SALES
NET PROFIT =MOS X CM%
CONTRIBUTION MARGIN & CONTRIBUTION MARGIN RATIO =SALES-TVC =CONTRIBUTION/SALES
OPERATING LEVERAGE DEF: The sensitivity of net profit to changes in sales =CONTRIBUTION/PROFIT>>>FACTOR e.g. sales change by 25% change in profit=FACTOR X 25% *the higher the leverage the higher the sensitivity
BREAK-EVEN FOR ENTITIES WITH MORE THAN ONE PRODUCT 1. DETERMINE SALES MIX 2.DETERMINE SEPERATE CONTRIBUTION 3.COMBINE THE CONTRIBUTIONS BASED ON SALES MIX RATIO eg. x+2y [sum Total contribution/sum of units=avrg contri] 4. calculate BE
State the ASSUMPTIONS of CVP Single product or constant sales mix  Complexity related fixed costs do not change  Profits are calculated on a variable costing basis  Total costs and total revenue are linear functions of output  The analysis applies to the relevant range only  Costs can be accurately divided into their fixed and variable elements.
LINEAR PROGRAMMING ASSUMPTIONS Linearity (constant contribution per unit of output) • Perfect divisibility of outputs and inputs • Relationships may be expressed as linear formulas • All costs vary with a single volume-related output measure, or are otherwise fixed. • Short-term focus (constraints consist over the short term) • The products produced are not produced in a fixed combination
how do you intrepret risk based on standard deviation the higher the risk the higher the standard deviation.
