29. Changes in Fixed Costs and Sales
Volume
Wind is currently selling 500 bikes per month. The
company’s sales manager believes that an
increase of $10,000 in the monthly advertising
budget would increase bike sales to 540 units.
Should we authorize the requested increase in the
advertising budget?

33. Equation Method
Profits = Sales – (Variable expenses + Fixed expenses)
Sales = Variable expenses + Fixed expenses + Profits
OR
At the break-even point
profits equal zero.
34. Break-Even Analysis
Here is the information from Wind Bicycle Co.:
Total Per Unit Percent
Sales (500 bikes) 250,000$ 500$ 100%
Less: variable expenses 150,000 300 60%
Contribution margin 100,000$ 200$ 40%
Less: fixed expenses 80,000
Net operating income 20,000$
35. Equation Method
We calculate the break-even point as follows:
Sales = Variable expenses + Fixed expenses + Profits
$500Q = $300Q + $80,000 + $0
Where:
Q = Number of bikes sold
$500 = Unit selling price
$300 = Unit variable expense
$80,000 = Total fixed expense
36. Equation Method
We calculate the break-even point as follows:
Sales = Variable expenses + Fixed expenses + Profits
$500Q = $300Q + $80,000 + $0
$200Q = $80,000
Q = $80,000 ÷ $200 per bike
Q = 400 bikes
37. Equation Method
We can also use the following equation to compute
the break-even point in sales dollars.
Sales = Variable expenses + Fixed expenses + Profits
X = 0.60X + $80,000 + $0
Where:
X = Total sales dollars
0.60 = Variable expenses as a % of sales
$80,000 = Total fixed expenses
38. Equation Method
X = 0.60X + $80,000 + $0
0.40X = $80,000
X = $80,000 ÷ 0.40
X = $200,000
We can also use the following equation to compute
the break-even point in sales dollars.
Sales = Variable expenses + Fixed expenses + Profits
39. Contribution Margin Method

of the equation method.

40. Target Profit Analysis
Suppose Wind Co. wants to know how many
bikes must be sold to earn a profit of
$100,000.
We can use our CVP formula to determine the
sales volume needed to achieve a target net
profit figure.
