Full Costing A method of allocating indirect costs to
a range of products produced by thefirm.
e.g. if a firm produces three products - a,b, and c - and has indirect costs of 1million, assume proportion of direct costs of20% for a, 55% for b and 25% for c
Indirect costs allocated as 20% of 1 millionto a, 55% of 1 million to b and 25% of 1million to c

Break Even AnalysisCosts/Revenue
Output/Sales
Initially a firmwill incur fixedcosts, thesedo not dependon output orsales.
FC
As output isgenerated, thefirm will incurvariable costs these varydirectly with the
amountproduced.
VC The total coststherefore(assumingaccurateforecasts!) is thesum of FC+VC
TC Total revenue isdetermined bythe price chargedand the quantitysold again thiswill bedetermined by
expectedforecast salesinitially.
TR The lower theprice, the lesssteep the totalrevenue curve.
TR
Q1
The break evenpoint occurs wheretotal revenueequals total costs the firm, in thisexample, wouldhave to sell Q1 to
generate sufficientrevenue to cover itscosts.

Break Even Analysis
Remember:
A higher price or lower price does not
mean that break even will never bereached!
The break even point depends on thenumber of sales needed to generate
revenue to cover costs the break evenchart is NOT time related!

Links of break even to pricingstrategies and elasticity
Penetration pricinghigh volume,low price more sales to break even
Market Skimminghigh price lowvolumes fewer sales to break even
