    Betis limited is considering changing the way it structure by asking its employed staff to become freeelance. Employess are currently paid fixed salary of $ 24000000 per annum but would instead be paid $ 200 per working day. On a typical working day staff can produce 40 unit. Other fixed cost are $ 400000pa
    The selling price of a unit is $ 60 and material cost are $ 20 per unit

    What will be the effect of the change on the break even point of the business and the level of operating risk?

    Edward sell two product with selling price and contribution as follow
    Product f product g
    Selling price 40 20
    Contribution 10 4
    Budgeted sale 150000 100000
    Unit

    Edward fixed cost are 14000000 per year
    Edward now anticipates that more Customer will buy the cheaper product g and that budgeted sales will be 150000 unit for each product.

    If this happen what would happen to the breakeven revenue??

    C/s ratio of product g is lower i think mix will reduce i got this point but breakeven revenue will increase by an amount but not by the amount of extra sales of product g this is not relevant why sir

    You must open a new thread for a new question – not list a whole series of questions in one thread!!

    EC Ltd: If the variable cost is 70% of sales revenue, then the contribution must be 30% of the sales revenue. Therefore the CS ratio is 30%.

    Betis: If the staff become freelance they are paid 200 a day and this is a variable cost. They will no longer be paid a fixed salary of $2,400,000 and so this will not longer exist.

    Edward: The current overall CS ratio is 1.9M / 8M = 0.2375
    Therefore the current breakeven revenue = 1.4M / 0.2375 = 5,894,737
    The new overall CS ratio is 4.2M / 18M = 0.2333
    Therefore the new breakeven revenue = 1/4M / 0.2333 = 6,000,857

    Have you watched my free lectures on CVP analysis? The lectures are a complete free course for Paper F5 and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.

    Also, you should be practicing questions using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers – they include answers with workings!!
