1 (FIN MAN); CHAPTER 4 (MAN) COST BEHAVIOR AND COST-VOLUME-PROFIT ANALYSIS 1. Total variable costs change in proportion to changes in the level of activity. Unit variable costs remain the same regardless of the level of activity. 2. a. Variable costs b. Variable costs DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 3. Total fixed cost remains the same regardless of changes in the level of activity. Fixed cost per unit decreases as the activity level increases and increases as the activity level decreases. 4. Mixed costs are costs that have characteristics of both a variable and a fixed cost. The high-low method uses the highest and lowest activity levels and their related costs to estimate the variable cost per unit and the fixed cost. The total fixed cost does not change with changes in activity level. Thus, the difference in the total cost between the highest and lowest levels of activity is the change in the total variable cost. Dividing this difference by the difference in activity level is an estimate of the variable cost per unit. The fixed cost is then estimated by subtracting the total variable costs from the total costs for the level of activity. 5. a. No impact on the contribution margin. b. Income from operations would decrease. 6. A high contribution margin ratio, coupled with idle capacity, indicates a potential for increased income from operations if additional sales can be made. A large percentage of each additional sales dollar would be available, after providing for variable costs, to cover promotion efforts and to increase income from operations. Thus, a substantial sales promotion campaign should be considered in order to expand sales to maximum capacity and to take advantage of the low ratio of variable costs to sales. 7. Decreases in unit variable costs, such as a decrease in the unit cost of direct materials, will decrease the break-even point. 8. Austin Company had lower fixed costs and a higher percentage of variable costs to sales than did Hill Company. Such a situation resulted in a lower break-even point for Austin Company. 9. The individual products are treated as components of one overall enterprise product. These components are weighted by the sales mix percentages when determining the contribution margin. Therefore, the sales mix affects the contribution margin and thus the break-even point. 10. Operating leverage measures the relationship between a company s contribution margin and income from operations. The difference between contribution margin and income from operations is fixed costs. Thus, companies with high fixed costs will normally have a high operating leverage. Low operating leverage is normal for companies that are labor intensive, such as professional service companies, which have low fixed costs. It is computed as follows: Operating Leverage Contribution Margin Income from Operations 19-1

The contribution margin earned per new subscriber is essentially the revenue earned less the variable cost over the 12-month subscription period. Revenue: (12 mos. 2 free mos.) $10/mo. $100 per new account Variable cost: 12 mos. $6.25/mo. $75 per new account Note: The variable cost is for 12 months since the costs are incurred, even during the free months. The break-even number of subscribers necessary to cover the fixed cost of the promotion would be computed as follows: Break-Even Fixed Costs Contribution Margin per Unit Break-Even $2,500, ,000 accounts $100 $75 Therefore, if ESPN.com yielded more than 100,000 new subscribers out of the promotional campaign, the costs of the campaign would be covered

An interesting question is whether the costs are variable to the number of minutes or number of accounts. If we assume that the costs are variable to the number of minutes, then the break-even analysis revolves around the number of minutes. More likely, the costs are more variable to the number of accounts for this business (mostly customer acquisition and service costs), while the variable cost per minute is likely to be small

However, there are many points against the proposal, including: a. The break-even point increases by 15,625 units (from 49,375 to 65,000). b. The sales necessary to maintain the current income from operations of $5,650,000 would be 135,625 units, or $2,187,500 (15,625 units $140) in excess of 2014 sales. c. If future sales remain at the 2014 level, the income from operations of $5,650,000 will decline to $4,400,000. The company should determine the sales potential if the additional product is produced and then evaluate the advantages and the disadvantages enumerated above, in light of these sales possibilities

44 CASES & PROJECTS CP 19 1 (FIN MAN); CP 4 1 (MAN) In an absolute sense, Edward s actions are devious. He is clearly attempting to use the first four-year scenario, which is favorable, as a way to market the partnerships. They are really longer-term investments. After the first four years, the risk increases dramatically. The break-even occupancy becomes much more difficult to achieve at 95% than it does at 65%. Focusing on the 65% and remaining silent about the increase to 95% is deceptive. One might argue let the buyer beware. After all, the information is in the fine print. A little spadework would reveal the longer-term reality of these partnerships. This is not a compelling argument. Clearly, Edward is putting some favorable spin on this offering. It s likely that this will come back to haunt him in a court of law. Some investors may claim they were defrauded by less than complete disclosure. Edward has a responsibility to provide objective information. The integrity standard requires that Edward communicate constraints that would preclude the successful performance of an activity. Also, Edward must communicate unfavorable as well as favorable information. Clearly, the increase in the mortgage rate and its impact on the break-even point is unfavorable information that should be given as much visibility as the favorable 65% break-even information
45 CP 19 2 (FIN MAN); CP 4 2 (MAN) The airline industry has a high operating leverage. This means that fixed costs are a large part of the cost structure. The break-even volume is apparently around 65% of capacity. When the volume falls below 65%, the industry loses money. As the percentage increases above 65%, the industry becomes very profitable. There is a difference between profitability and cash flow. Since a large part of the cost structure in airlines is fixed costs, this means that depreciation makes up a large part of the expense base. Depreciation is a noncash expense. Therefore, it is likely that the industry is not profitable but has positive cash flow at capacity use that is below break-even. There is a point, however, where the industry will not generate sufficient cash to maintain operations. The airline strategy of raising ticket prices and consolidating routes may be a successful strategy; however, there are a number of considerations. First, the higher ticket prices would increase the revenue per passenger-mile and reduce the break-even occupancy percentage only if it is assumed that there is no change in passenger volume. However, this is unlikely. The revenue from price increases would need to increase faster than the lost revenue from lower traffic volume for a price increase to lower break-even. To raise ticket prices, the airline would have to minimize the impact on lost volume. This might be possible for fare increases targeted to business travelers that need to fly, regardless of ticket price. The airline can minimize volume losses by keeping fares lower for nonbusiness travelers. Restrictions such as allowing reduced fares only on round-trip fares that go over a Saturday night achieve this objective, since business travelers do not wish to be out of town over the weekend. Likewise, requiring higher fares for seats reserved with little advance notice would also achieve this objective, since much business travel cannot be planned weeks in advance. The strategy of consolidating routes attacks a major cost of airlines. The number of flights and terminals served drives fuel and airport ground- and terminal-related costs. Therefore, consolidating routes by either reducing the number of terminals served and/or the number of flights is a method of achieving some economies of scale. For example, an airline could consolidate three flights departing in the morning from Tulsa to Dallas into just two flights departing in the morning. This would reduce the airline s costs but would increase the airline passengers inconvenience. This strategy works only if there is little loss in revenue by going to two flights, meaning that the people bumped from the third flight go to the other two, rather than a competitor. Alternatively, an airline flying into LaGuardia and Newark airports in the New York metropolitan area might decide to fly into only one of the terminals in order to reduce ground-related costs. Again, this strategy would only be successful if there was little loss in revenue relative to the cost savings

CP 19 4 (FIN MAN); CP 4 4 (MAN) The direct labor costs are not variable to the increase in unit volume. The unit volume is the wrong activity base for direct labor costs. The number of impressions is a more accurate reflection of the direct labor cost. An impression is a separate printing color application on the banners. Thus, the analysis should be done as follows: One Two Three Four Color Color Color Color Total Number of banners ,800 Number of impressions ,848 2,792 5,400 Last year s impressions: 1,800 ( ,140) Total increase: 5,400 1,800 1, % Thus, a 125% assumed increase from the unit volume information will understate the potential increase in direct labor cost
47 CP 19 5 (FIN MAN); CP 4 5 (MAN) The Shipping Department manager should respond by pointing out that the activities performed by his department are not related to sales volume but to sales orders. The orders require inventory pulling and sorting activities as well as paperwork activities. Thus, even though the sales volume is decreasing, the number of sales orders processed has increased from 1,180 to 1,475 (25%) over the last eight months. The reason for this increase in sales orders is that customers are ordering lower quantities per order than in the past. Thus, it is no wonder that the Shipping Department manager is experiencing financial pressure. The amount of work performed by the department is increasing, even though sales volume is down. CP 19 6 (FIN MAN); CP 4 6 (MAN) There are many possible applications of break-even analysis in a school environment. Below are just a few possible ideas.
