Fixed costs 3,00,000
Net Profit 2,00,000

Answer Posted / shashi kumar b.com student

P/v ratio =contribution/sales * 100
=500000/1000000*100
P/v Ratio =50%

BEP=fixed cost/contribution*sales

=300000/500000*1000000
BEP =6000000

Margin of safety = sales-BEP
=1000000-6000000
Margin of safety=5000000
