Answer / *pradeep
P/v ratio means it the relation between sales & contribution.
Or it is known as profit volume ratio.
P/v ratio = contribution/sales x 100
contribution = sales - variable cost (c=s-v)
or,fixed cost + profit = sales - variable cost.
so,sales = fixed cost+profit+variable cost.
or,p.v ratio = (sales - variable cost) / sales x 100

Answer / neetesh kumar rai
The Profit Volume (PV) Ratio is the ratio of Contribution
over Sales. It measures the Profitability of the firm and is
one of the important ratios for computing profitability. The
Contribution is the extra amount of sales over variable
cost. Contribution is also Fixed cost plus profit.
Profit = Sales - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost.
Thus Contribution is:
Profit + Fixed Cost = Sales - Variable Cost.
Therefore PV Ratio = (Contribution/Sales)X100. (This as a
percentage of sales)
