PROBLEM 3. The income statement of Sandra Company follows: Sales Less Variable expenses Contribution margin Less Fixed costs P500,000 (275.000) 225,000 (180,000) P 45,000 Operating income Sandra produces and sells a single product. The above income statement is based on sales of 100,000 units. Requirements: 1. Compute the breakeven point in units and in pesos. 2. Suppose that the selling price increases by 10 percent. Will the breakeven increase or decrease? 3. Suppose that the variable cost per unit increases by P0.35. What will happen to breakeven point? 4. Can you predict whether the breakeven increases or decreases if both the selling price and the unit variable cost increase? Recompute the breakeven point by incorporating both the changes in requirement 2 and 3. 5. Assume that total fixed costs increase by P50,000. Will the breakeven point change?
