Overview

Cost-volume-profit analysis models how selling price, variable cost, fixed cost, volume, and sales mix interact to determine operating profit.

Core Concepts

  • Contribution margin (CM) = Sales - Variable costs.
  • CM per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit.
  • CM ratio = CM / Sales = CM per unit / Selling price per unit.

Exam Tips

  • Calculate CM first; most CVP formulas flow from it.
  • For multi-product questions, write the sales-mix proportions before calculating weighted CM.
