CHAPTER 2:

BREAK-EVEN ANALYSIS
Introduction
 Break-even point (BEP) is a point where an investor or a businessman does not make any profit or
loss.
 The BEP is the point at which cost or expenses and revenue are equal; there is no net loss or gain.
 This point is important to determine the lowest price of a product.

Break-even Point Analysis
 Two common functions of calculating the break-even point are to:
- Plan and control costs with respect to sales
- Measure and monitor sales performance
 The analysis of break-even point has the following limitations:
- All the fixed costs are constants.
- The variable cost per unit is a constant.
- Total Cost = Fixed Costs + Variable Costs
- No changes in efficiency and productivity of the operation
- The costs only depend on production quantity or sales volume

Analysing BEP Using Algebra
The contribution margin ratio (CMR)
Contribution margin (CM) is the indicates the percentage of sales available to
amount generated by sales to cover cover fixed costs and contributes towards
fixed costs profit

Contribution Margin (CM) Contribution Margin Ratio


= Selling price – Variable costs = (Selling price – Variable costs) x 100
P
CM = p - vc
CMR = p – VC x 100
p

Analysing BEP Using Algebra
A break even point may be expressed in
terms of quantity or value of sales. (b) Break-even point in value (RM)

(a) Break-even point in quantity (units) BEP (RM)


BEP (units) = FC
= FC p – VC
p - VC p
@ @

= FC = BEP (units) x price

Question 1
The following information was provided by CELTECH Sdn Bhd for the production of a
product for the year ended 30/12/2019.

Sales volume (units) = 30,000


Price per unit = RM9.30
Variable cost per unit = RM5.30
Annual Fixed Cost = RM100,000

Calculate:
a. The profit made in that year.
b. The BEP in units and RM
c. The units need to be sold to get profit of RM40000
d. The profit when the units sold is equal to BEP units

Question 1
The following information was provided by CELTECH Sdn Bhd for the production of a
product for the year ended 30/12/2019.

Sales volume (units) = 30,000


Price per unit = RM9.30
Variable cost per unit = RM5.30
Annual Fixed Cost = RM100,000

Calculate:
a. The profit made in that year.
profit = TR - TC
= pq – (FC + VCq)
= 9.30 (30,000) – [(100,000 + 5.30(30,000)]
= 279,000-100,000-159,000
= RM20,000

Question 2
ABC Sdn Bhd plans to produce rattan base product. The following information is
obtained:

Total sales volume = 10000units


Price per unit = RM15.00
Variable cost = RM8.50
Fixed cost = RM80000
Profit = RM100000

Calculate:
a. The quantity and value of the BEP
b. The profit gained by the company
c. The Contribution Margin Ratio
d. The profit if selling price increased 20%

8
Break – Even Point Using Graph
Beside using formulae or calculation, the break-even point can be determine using
graph:
a. Break-even point is the intersection point of the graphs for total revenue and
total cost
b. Quantity for break-even point is read off from the x-axis
c. Value for break-even point is read off from the y-axis
d. The area above the break-even point is called the profit area
e. The area below the break-even point is called the loss area

b. The total revenue function, P(x)
c. The profit function, P (x)
d. Draw the straight line graphs and estimate the breakeven point (quantity and value)
e. Shade the profit and loss area on the graph
f. Profit (loss) if:
i. 20000 units sold
ii. 5000 units sold
