Problem No. 2
Particulars Rs. Per unit Total Rs.
Selling price 20
Less: variable cost (12)
Contribution 8
Fixed costs Rs.9,000 X 4quarters 36,000
1. PV Ratio = Contributionperunit X100= Rs.8 X100 = 40%
Salespriceperunit Rs.20
2. Breakeven point(in Rs.) = Fixedcosts =Rs.36,000 = Rs.90,000
PVRatio 40%
3. Breakeven quantity = Fixedcosts =Rs.36,000 = 4,500 units.
Contributionperunit Rs.8
4. Required sales for profit of Rs.12,000:
= DesiredContribution =FixedCost+DesiredProfit =Rs.36,000+Rs.12,000 =Rs.1,20,000
PVRatio PVRatio 40%
5. Profit at sales of Rs.2,00,000 = Contribution less fixed cost = (Rs.2,00,000 X 40%) – Rs.36,000 =
Rs.44,000.

6. Margin of safety:
For (4) above, margin of safety = total sales - breakeven sales = 1,20,000 – 90,000 = Rs.30,000.
For (5) above, margin of safety = total sales – breakeven sales = 2,00,000 – 90,000 = Rs.1,10,000.

Note.2: present contribution per unit = selling price per unit – variable cost per unit = Rs.10 –Rs.6 =
Rs.4 per unit.

Selling price to earn same
Particulars Present Proposed Contribution
Sales (let) 100 80 20 = 40
160
80 = ?
Less: Variable cost (60) (60)* (120)
Contribution 40 20 40
Therefore if selling price is reduced by 20% selling price has to be increased by 60% i.e. from Rs. 100
to Rs. 160.
* Variable cost will not change for change in selling price.
Problem No. 6
a)
1. % of margin of safety = Margin of safety
Total sales
Total sales = Margin of safety
%ofMargin of safety
= 2,40,000
40%
= 6,00,000
Break even sales = Total sales – Margin of Safety sales
= 6,00,000 – 2,40,000
= 3,60,000
2. Profit = [Total sales – Break even sales] x P/V Ratio
= (9,00,000 – 3,60,000) x 30%
= 1,62,000
b) Fixed cost = Contribution – Profit
= 2,00,000 – 1,50,000
= 50,000 Rs.
P/V Ratio = Contribution = 2,00,000 = 25%
sales 8,00,000
BEP = Fixedcost = 50,000 = 2,00,000
P/VRatio 25%
Margin of safety = Total sales – BEP
= 8,00,000 – 2,00,000
= 6,00,000

Problem No. 7
P/V ratio = Contribution X100=1,50,000 X100=50%
Sales 3,00,000
i. If in the next period company suffered a loss of Rs. 30,000, then
Contribution = Fixed Cost - Profit
= Rs. 90,000 – Rs. 30,000 (as it is a loss)
= Rs. 60,000.
Then Sales = Contributionor 60,000 =Rs.1,20,000
P/VRatio 0.50
So, there will be loss of Rs. 30,000 at sales of Rs. 1,20,000.
ii. safety = Profit or 90,000 =Rs.1,80,000
PVratio 0.50
Problem No. 8
i. In the First half year:
Contribution = Fixed cost + Profit = 4,50,000 + 3,00,000 = Rs. 7,50,000
P/V ratio =ContributionX100 = 7,50,000 X 100 = 50%
sales 15,00,000
Fixed cost 4,50,000
Break-even point = P/V ratio = 50% = Rs. 9,00,000
Margin of safety = Actual sales – Break-even point = 15,00,000 – 9,00,000 = Rs. 6,00,000
ii. In the second half year:
Contribution = Fixed cost – Loss = 4,50,000 – 1,50,000 = Rs. 3,00,000
Expected sales volume = Fixed cost -loss = 3,00,000 = Rs. 6,00,000
P/V ratio 50%
iii. For the whole year:
B.E. point = Fixed cost = 4,50,000X2 = Rs.18,00,000
P/V ratio 50%
Margin of safety = PROFIT = 3,00,000 . 1,50,000 = Rs. 3,00,000.
P/V ratio 50%
Problem No. 9
1. Marginal cost sheet for the given data is prepared as under –
