0

given a sales price of $100, variable costs of $70 and a break even point of 500 units, net operating profit of 501 units will be

A company with a high ratio of fixed costs

Is more likely to experience greater profits one sales are up in a company with mostly variable costs, is more likely to experience a loss when sales are down then I company with mostly variable costs

A measure of how sensative net operating income is to a given percentage change in sales dollars is known as operating

leverage

Candle central has 11440 of total variable expenses for a sales level of 600 units and 2160 of total variable expense for a sale level of 900 units. If candle central sells 500 units

the contribution margin equals sales minus

all variable costs

When a company sells one unit above the number required to break even, the company's net operating income will

CVP analysis focuses on how profits are affected by:

selling prices, sales volume, unit variable costs, total fixed costs, mix of products sold.

The single point where the total revenue line crosses the total expense line on the CVP graph indicates

the break even point profit equals zero

break even point can be affected by

total fixed costs sales mix contri margin per unit

At the break even point:

total revenue equals total cost net operating income is zero

Profit = (selling price per unit x quanitity sold) = expense per unit x quantitty sold) = _________ expenses

variable, fixed

The break even point is the level of sales at which the profit equals ______
