Break Even Analysis - Terminology
Fixed Cost (FC) – Costs
that do not change with
increases or decreases in
sales
Contribution Margin (CM) –
The difference between selling
price (S) and variable costs
(VC).
Variable costs (VC) – Costs
that do change in response
to changes in the sales
Breakeven Point (BE) – The
point at which the seller has
covered all costs of a unit and
has not made any profit or
suffered any loss.
Selling Price (S) – Price of goods
8-20
Calculating a Contribution Margin (CM)
Contribution margin (CM) = Selling Price (S) – Variable cost (VC)
• Assume Jones Company
produces pens that have a
selling price (S) of $2 and
a variable cost (VC) of
$.80. Calculate the
contribution margin
CM = $2,00 (S) - $.80 (VC)
CM = $1.20

Calculating a Breakeven Point (BE)
Breakeven point (BE) = Fixed Costs (FC)
Contribution margin (CM)
• Jones Company produces
pens. The company has
fixed cost (FC) of $60,000.
Each pen sells for $2.00
with a variable cost (VC)
of $.80 per pen.

Problem 8-24:
Solution:
Markup = $1.50 - $.42 = $1.08
$1.08/.42 = .25714 = 257.14%
Check: $1.50 = $.42 + 257.14(.42)
$1.50 = $.42 + 1.08
$1.50 = $1.50
