Also‚ previously mentioned was that the break-even analysis received it’s named due to fact that the expected profit happens to equal to zero and the total revenue also equals the total costs (Cleverley‚ Cleverley‚ & Song‚ 2012). In order to determine a profit‚ the net income must exceed the total costs. There is no profit unless the revenue exceeds the costs. Any amount of output over the break-even point will be considered as a profit. The original net income profit

We also know that patient demand is unknown and that other factors remain the same as for the year ending in June 30‚ 2011. Based on what we know so far‚ we use the pX = a + bX formula to get the break-even point‚ in which X = Minimum Number of Patient-Days

prefer to use? b) Break-Even Analysis – Systems of Equations Application Problem Suppose a company produces and sells pizzas as its product. Its revenue is the money generates by selling x number of pizzas. Its cost is the cost of producing x number of pizzas. Revenue Function: R(x) = selling price per pizza(x) Cost Function: C(x) = fixed cost + cost per unit produced(x) The point of intersection on a graph of each function is called the break-even point. We can also find the break-even point using the

and break up the monopoly of the 747‚ but it didn’t have a product to compete with Boeing’s 747. Compared to the 747‚ the A3XX provides more advantageous features which would attract passengers especially on the longer routes‚ such as more space per seat‚ four-engine plane‚ etc. The combination of increased capacity and reduced costs would provide superior economics. Airbus felt confident that capacity increases would eventually prevail. As we stated above‚ Airbus’s objectives are to break up the
