Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis - Definition … examines the behavior of total revenues, total costs, and
operating profit as changes occur in
the output level, the selling price, the variable costs, or the fixed costs.
CVP Analysis General case many many various (short-run, long-run, product life cycles)
CVP-Factors revenue drivers cost drivers time period
Special case single (output units) single (output units) short-run (typically less than 1 year, in which fixed costs do not change within the relevant range)

CVP – Terminology CVP-Terminology Total costs = Variable costs + Fixed costs Operating profit = Total revenues – Total costs Net profit = Operating profit – Income Taxes USP … unit selling price UVC … unit variable cost UCM … unit contribution margin (USP – UVC) CM % … contribution margin percentage UCM FC … fixed costs
USP
Q … quantity of output units

CVP – Assumptions Main CVP-Assumptions Total costs can be divided into fixed part and variable part depending on
level of output. Total revenues and total costs are linear in relation to output units within
relevant range. Unit selling price, unit variable costs and fixed costs are known. Analysis for a single product or a constant sales-mix. Number of output units is the only revenue and cost driver.
5
The Breakeven Point Definition Quantity of output where total revenues and total costs are equal;
that is, where operating profit is zero.

• Scrutinize if changes in FC are accompanied by movements in VC. • FC increase • Larger losses at low activity levels. • UCM increase makes us recuperate FC faster.

Sensitivity Analysis – Margin of Safety Sensitivity Analysis A “what-if ”-technique examining how a result will change if the original
predicted data are not achieved or if an assumption changes. Example: What will operating profit be if unit variable costs increase by 5 %?
Margin of Safety Indicates by how much sales may decrease before resulting in a loss. Calculation Absolute: Expected sales – breakeven sales In %:
( Expected s ales breakeven sales ) Expected sales

The Breakeven Point in a multiproduct situation There is no unique breakeven number of units for a multiple-
product situation.
Two possible methods are: I. Assume a constant mix of sales II. Use the lowest and highest UCM product to give a range of sales The first method (assuming no changes in budgeted sales mix at
different levels of total unit sales) can be done in two ways: Equation method (Ia) Contribution margin method (Ib)

FC = 35,000 € For each box with markers, we sell 2 with pens and 3 with pencils. BP = ? 15
Method Ia – equation method (mix unit) We define a fictitious mix unit through the combination of sales => 2 /
1 / 3. CM (mix) = (2 x 6) + (1 x 5) + (3 x 3) = 26 € / mix units BP = FC / CM mix unit = 35,000 / 26 = 1,347 mix units
This means that we must sell: Pens: 1,347 x 2 = 2,694 boxes Markers: 1,347 x 1 = 1,347 boxes Pencils: 1,347 x 3 = 4,041 boxes

Method Ia – equation method (mix unit) To reach a targeted operating profit, say 30,000 €, we must sell the
following quantity (Q):
Q = (FC + OP) / CM (mix) = (35,000 + 30,000) / 26 = 2,500 mix units This means that we must sell: Pens: 2,500 x 2 = 5,000 boxes Markers: 2,500 x 1 = 2,500 boxes Pencils: 2,500 x 3 = 7,500 boxes

Method Ib – contribution margin method Calculate the weighted-average contribution margin per unit
for all products (A, B, …) together: Breakeven point: (UCM * N o . of units sold ) (UCM * N o. of units sold ) (...) No . of units sold No . of units sold ... A

Fixed Costs Weighted average CM
Ratio of units sold for each product x Breakeven point 19
Method Ib – contribution margin method For the previous example: CM weighted = (6 x 2/6) + (5 x 1/6) + (3 x 3/6) = 4.33 €/unit BP = 35,000 / 4.33 = 8,083 units (total boxes to sell) This means that we must sell: Pens: 8,083 x 2/6 = 2,694 boxes Markers: 8,083 x 1/6 = 1,347 boxes Pencils: 8,083 x 3/6 = 4,041 boxes

Method II – range of sales We take the product with the lowest UCM calculate “highest
breakeven sales”
We take the product with the highest UCM calculate “lowest
breakeven sales”
Breakeven sales with a typical mix of sales will be in that range.

Method II – range of sales For previous example: Lowest UCM: pencils (UCM =3) BP = 35,000 / 3 = 11,666
pencils
Highest UCM: pens (UCM =6) BP = 35,000 / 6 = 5,833 pens
