Explanation / Answer

(a) Break even Number of Passengers at $2000 per passenger Variable cost per passenger = $2000,000 /2000 =$1000 contribution per passenger = price per passenger - variable cost per passenger =$2000-$1000 =$1000 break even number pf passengers per cruise = Fixed expenses per cruise / Contribution per passenger =$1,500,000/$1000 =1500 (b) What do Consider beyond these esimates and what hapend to break even point if they are considered. factors to consider in break even analysis They need to Consider the factor depreciation expense of the new cruise. This would increase the fixed cost hence the number of passengers required to break even also increse. This would increase the fixed cost hence the number of passengers required to break even also increse. there is No change in capacity , so No effect
