Answer Posted / mohit duvedi

given:-
sales=20000
FC=4000
BEP=10000

BEP=FC/PV RATIO
:. PV RATIO= FC/BEP
PV RATIO= 4000/10000 *100
(1)PVR=40% ANS


DESIRED PROFIT= (SALES*PVR)-FC
DP= (20000*40%)-4000
DP=8000-4000=4000
(2) DESIRED PROFIT=4000


NEW SELLING PRICE=20000-20%=16000
NEW BEP= FC/N PVR

N PVR=FC+PROFIT/NEW SELLING PRICE*100
=4000+4000/16000*100
=8000/16000*100
=50%
NEW BEP=4000/50%
=8000
(3) NEW BREAK EVEN POINT=8000 ANS
