350

Given a sales price of $375 per unit, variable cost of $125 per unit, and fixed costs of $100,000, the breakeven point in units is

400

The overall break-even point for XYZ, which produced two products (A and B), is 150 units. The standard sales mix is 1 unit of A for every 2 units of B. At the overall break-even point for the firm, the number of units of Product A is:

50

A structured approach to uncertainty/risk analysis that incorporates managerial actions, events, and outcomes (for example, the amount of profit generated during a period), is referred as:

A decision tree (or decision table)

Separate CVP models can be developed for individual products/services as long as there are no significant demand dependencies across products/services and:

All fixed costs are traceable to, or can reasonably be allocated to, individual products/services

When doing CVP analysis using the ABC method:

Batch-level costs may increase or decrease (i.e., are considered variable costs)

Break-even point in units multiplied by the selling price per unit equals:

Break-even in sales dollars

A firm has two products, A and B. After determining the number of "baskets" of products needed to achieve the specified profit objective (e.g., break-even), we convert the number of "baskets" to individual units of each product (e.g., Product A):

By multiplying the number of baskets times the number of units of Product A in a "basket"

Which of the following is NOT one of the five strategic decision making steps for CVP analysis?

Choose the option that has the lowest variable costs

The income statement used in conjunction with CVP (cost volume profit) analysis is called the ______ income statement

Contribution

The amount by which operating profit changes for each unit change in sales is the:

Contribution margin per unit

Contribution margin per unit is $6

A model representing how costs and revenues change in response to changes in volume (output) is referred to as:

Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis

Defined at each output (volume) level, Q

Margin of safety (MOS) is:

The end product (information) obtained from a decision table/decision tree is a set of:

Expected values for each decision option

Facility-level costs are treated differently under CVP analysis using an activity-based costing (ABC) approach than they are under the conventional approach to CVP

False

Only firms that compete on cost leadership need CVP analysis

False

The basic CP model (without income taxes) can be expanded to include income tax considerations by:

First converting desired after-tax income to pretax dollar equivalents

The basic CVP model (without income taxes) can be expanded to include income tax considerations by:

First converting desired after-tax income to pretax dollar equivalents

If the degree of operating leverage (DOL) at a given output level (Q) is 10, this means that:

From that output level (Q), each % change in sales leads to a 10% change in operating income

If a multi product company cannot reasonably allocate fixed costs to each product, then a constant _____ ______ must be assumed in order to build a single CVP model for profit-planning purposes

Sales mix % based on relative sales dollars
