ACCOUNTS FOR DECISION MAKING
COST VOLUME PROFIT ANALYSIS
COST-VOLUME-PROFIT (CVP) ANALYSIS
Cost Volume Profit Analysis
(CVP) looks at the impact on
the operating profit due to the
varying levels of volume and
the costs and determines a
break-even point for cost
structures with different sales
volumes that will help
managers in making economic
decisions for short term.
 Cost Volume Profit Analysis includes the
analysis of sales price, fixed costs,
variable costs, the number of goods
sold, and how it affects the profit of the
business.
 The aim of a company is to earn a profit,
and profit depends upon a large number
of factors, most notable among them is
the cost of manufacturing and the
volume of sales. These factors are
largely interdependent.
The volume of sales is dependent
upon production volume, which in
turn is related to costs that are
affected by the volume of
production, product mix, internal
efficiency of the business,
production method used, etc.
 CVP analysis helps management in
finding out the relationship between cost
and revenue to generate profit.
 CVP Analysis helps them to BEP
Formula for different sales volume and
cost structures.
 With CVP Analysis information,the
management can better understand the
overall performance and determine what
units it should sell to break even or to
reach a certain level of profit.
BENEFITS
CVP analysis provides a clear and
simple understanding of the level of
sales that are required for a business
to break even (No profit, No loss),
level of sales required to achieve
targeted profit.
CVP analysis helps management to
understand the different costs at
different levels of production/sales
volume. CVP analysis helps decision-
makers in forecasting cost and profit
on account of change in volume.
CVP Analysis helps businesses
analyze during recessionary times
the comparative effects of shutting
down a business or continuing
business at a loss, as it clearly
bifurcates the Direct and Indirect
cost.
IMPORTANCE OF COST VOLUME
PROFIT ANALYSIS
 CVP analysis helps in determining the
level at which all relevant cost is
recovered, and there is no profit or loss,
which is also called the breakeven point.
It is that point at which volume of sales
equals total expenses (both fixed and
variable). Thus CVP analysis helps
decision-makers understand the effect of
a change in sales volume, price, and
variable cost on the profit of an entity
while taking fixed cost as unchangeable.
CVP Analysis helps in understanding
the relationship between profits and
costs on the one hand and volume on
the other. CVP Analysis is useful for
setting up flexible budgets that
indicate costs at various levels of
activity. CVP Analysis also helpful
when a business is trying to
determine the level of sales to reach a
targeted income
