    The management accountant of Caroline plc has calculated the firm’s breakeven point from the following data:

    Selling price per unit: $20
    Variable costs per unit: $8
    Fixed overheads for next year: $79,104.

    It is now expected that the product’s selling price and variable cost will increase by 8% AND 5.2 % RESPECTIVELY.

    These changes will cause Caroline’s breakeven point for next year to:
    A) Rise by 9.0%
    B Rise by 2.8%
    C) Fall by 2.8%
    D) Fall by 9%

    Please help to solve ,i cannot get clue here what to do with percent?

    The selling price will change to 20 + (8% x 20) = $21.60.
    The variable cost will change to 8 + (5.2% x 8) = $8.416

    So you can calculate the breakeven point using both the current contribution and the contribution next year in the normal way.
