Suppose that the ABC Corporation has a production (and sales) capacity of $1,000,000 per month. Its fixed costs—over a considerable range of volume—are $350,000 per month, and the variable costs are $0.50 per dollar of sales. a) What is the annual breakeven point volume (D')? b) What would be the effect on D' of decreasing the variable cost per unit by 25% if the fixed costs thereby increased by 10%? c) What would be the effect on D' if the fixed costs were decreased by 10% and the variable cost per unit were increased by the same percentage?

Cost of Production

In economic theory, production costs are the costs incurred by an industrial organization when it engineers a project or provides a service that generates revenue and benefits. Labor costs, raw materials, consumable manufacturing costs, and general overhead sum up, accounting for production costs. Total cost data is calculated by combining total direct costs of materials, labor costs, and total production costs.
