Contribution margin
SP - VC=CM
Operating income (before tax)
Spx - VCx - FC= Profit
Contribution margin ratio
CM / SP
Break even in units
FC / CM
Break even in sales dollars
FC / CM ratio
Break even math
SPx= VCx - FC Solve for x = units
Units x SP in units= BE in $
Target operating income before tax in units using CM
FC + P / CM
Target operating income before tax in dollars using CM
FC + P / CM ratio $
Target operating income before tax using math
VCx + FC + target operating income
Solve for x = units
SP x = VC x + FC
?
Margin of safety in $
Actual (expected ) sales - break even sales
Margin if safety %
Margin of safety in $ / actual (expected) sales
X 100?
Sales mix
Units for product 1 / total units =%
Units for product 2 / total units =%
Sales mix CM
Unit data. Prod 1. Prod 2 SP. $500. $1,000 VC 300. 500 CM $200. $500 Sell. %. %
Unit CM using weighted average
(Unit CM x sales mix %) + (unit CM x sales mix %)
Break even point using weighted average
FC / weighted av unit CM = BE in units
Step 2: break even units x % = units
CM for prid 1 x units =$
Do for all products
Then add the two $ amounts together = FC or total CM
