Essentials of CVP Analysis
Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis examines the behavior of total revenues, total costs, and operating income as changes occur in the units sold, the selling price, the variable cost per unit, or the fixed costs of a product.

Essentials of CVP Analysis
Illustrative case:Mary Frost is considering selling Do-All Software,
a home-office software package, at a computer convention in Chicago. Mary knows she can purchase this software from a computer software wholesaler at $120 per package, with the privilege of returning all unsold packages and receiving a full $120 refund per package. She also knows that she would pay $2,000 to Computer Conventions, Inc. for the booth rental at the convention. She will incur no other costs. She must decide whether she should rent a booth.

Essentials of CVP Analysis
3. Make predictions about the future.
Selling price can be at $200 per software
Estimated units to be sold 30-60
Consider competitors in the upcoming
convention
Review predictions, retest assumptions
Establish confidence on the predictions
Consult a friend in the same line of business

Essentials of CVP Analysis
Calculation of operating income at different assumptions:
Contribution margin – difference between total revenues and total variable costs
@ 5 packages
@ 40 packages
Revenues 200 1,000 8,000
Variable cost 120 600 4,800
Fixed cost 2,000 2,000
Operating Income (1,600) 1,200

Essentials of CVP Analysis
5. Implement the decision, evaluate performance, and learn.
compare actual with predicted performance
feedback will help future decisions about renting booths at subsequent conventions
