Which of the following is not an assumption underlying cost-volume-profit analysis? The break-even point will be passed during the period. Total sales and total costs can be represented by straight lines. Costs can be accurately divided into fixed and variable components The sales mix is constant.

Explanation / Answer

Answers

Correct answer is Option ‘b’ Increase.

The Break Even will increase because increase in variable cost = decrease in contribution margin per unit (denominator in calculating Break Even).

Correct answer is Option ‘c’ Unit Variable cost increases.

Same reason as mentioned in Question 124’s answer

Correct ANSWER is Option ‘b’ Break Even point will ALSO increase by 9%.

This is because Fixed cost is increasing by 9% and other things are staying the same.

Variable cost = 60% means CM Ratio = 40%

Break Even point = Fixed cost / CM Ratio = $ 850,000 / 40% = $ 2,125,000

Hence, correct answer is Option ‘a’: $ 2,125,000
