What is Break-Even Analysis?
the modeling technique where the # of units to sell or produce that will result in 0 profit
Fixed cost (c_f)
costs independent of production volume (ex: rent)
Variable cost (c_v)
cost per product unit produced
Volume
number of units produced or sold
Total variable costs =
v * c_v
Total costs (TC) =
c_f + v * c_v
Profit (Z) =
v * p - c_f - v * c_v
Break-Even Formula
v_BE = c_f / p - c_v
If price (p) increases…
BEP (break-even point) decreases (fewer units needed)
If per-unit variable increases…
BEP increases (more units needed)
If fixed costs increases…
BEP increases (more units needed)
