Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis is a powerful tool that managers use to help them understand the interrelationship among cost, volume and profit in an organization by focusing on interactions among the following five elements: 1. prices of products 2. volume or level of activity 3. per unit variable costs 4. total fixed costs 5. mix of products sold

Unit Contribution Margin: p – v
Total Contribution Margin: (p - v) *Q
Contribution Margin Ratio: (p-v) /p

Breakeven Point: The point at which revenues equal total cost, and the profit is zero. * Equation Method: p*Q = f + v*Q

* Contribution Margin Method Breakeven in Units: Q = f / (p-v) (Fixed expenses / CM per unit) Breakeven in Dollars: Y = p*Q = p*f / (p-v) = f / [(p-v)/p)] (Fixed expense/CM ratio)

determine the sales volume needed to achieve a target profit:
Sales = variable expenses + fixed expenses + profit

Margin of safety = total sales – break-even sales

Operating leverage: a measure of how sensitive net operating income is to percentage changes in sales
Degree of operating leverage = Contribution margin / net operating income

Sales mix is the relative proportion in which a company’s products are sold.

Assumption in CVP analysis: * Selling price is constant. * Costs are linear and can be accurately divided into variable (constant per unit) and fixed (constant in total) elements. * In multiproduct companies, the sales mix is constant. * In manufacturing companies, inventories do not change (units produced = units

    Breakeven is a point at which a company covers all its costs and its profit is zero. After reviewing Hallstead Jewelers Income Statement, operational statistics, and table 2 and 3, for fiscal years 2003, 2004, and 2006, we can see a slight change in the breakeven unit and dollar amounts between the fiscal year of 2003 when compared to 2004. At the same time we also examine a major change when comparing the breakeven points of the fiscal year 2004 to 2006. This can be seen in Tables 1, 2, and 3.…

    Overview Welcome to Module 1. If you have not already done so, read the Program Manual located in the Reference Material section of the CMA Canada Professional Programs website. It provides you with important introductory information about the program. In Module 1 of the program, candidates are exposed to many functional competencies from the CMA Competency Map that involve decision making regarding performance management, performance measurement, risk management and governance, and financial reporting. For assistance when doing their assignments in these areas, candidates are expected to draw on many of their intermediate and advanced management and financial accounting concepts they learned in their university courses and/or in the Accelerated Program. For instance, in this assignment, one of the concepts involves Cost-Volume-Profit (CVP) analysis. In these types of analysis, candidates may be asked to look at how profits and costs change with a change in volume, or a change in such factors as variable costs, fixed costs, selling prices, and mix of products sold. By studying the relationships of costs, sales and net income, management is better able to cope with many planning decisions. Candidates who have difficulty doing this assignment or future assignments regarding CVP are encouraged to review Chapters 11 and 12 from the Horngren et al. required reading mentioned below. As candidates gain more work experience, they will be exposed to a number of organizational concerns in the topic areas outlined above. For instance, candidates may be asked to provide analysis on such items as: 1. Preparing reports on a product or geographic segment to determine where the organization generates cash and profits; 2. Evaluating strategic alternatives in one’s organization using cost-benefit and scenario/sensitivity analysis; 3. Determining the effectiveness of costing systems for their appropriateness…
