Rs 18,00,000<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The break-even point is the point at which a company&#8217;s revenue is equal to its costs. In other words, it is the point at which the company neither makes nor loses money.<\/p>\n<p>The break-even point can be calculated using the following formula:<\/p>\n<p>Break-even point = Fixed costs \/ Contribution margin<\/p>\n<p>The contribution margin is the amount of revenue that is left over after a company has covered its variable costs. In other words, it is the amount of revenue that is available to cover fixed costs and make a profit.<\/p>\n<p>The P\/v ratio is the ratio of a company&#8217;s selling price to its variable cost per unit. The margin of safety is the percentage of sales that a company can lose before it reaches its break-even point.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, the P\/v ratio is 50% and the margin of safety is 40%. This means that the company&#8217;s contribution margin is 60% of its sales.<\/p>\n<p>The fixed costs are not given in the question, but we can calculate them using the following formula:<\/p>\n<p>Fixed costs = Break-even point * Contribution margin<\/p>\n<p>Substituting the values we know into the formula, we get:<\/p>\n<p>Fixed costs = 18,00,000 * 60\/100 = Rs 10,800,000<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the break-even point for the company is Rs 18,00,000.<\/p>\n<p>Option A is incorrect because it is the contribution margin, not the break-even point.<\/p>\n<p>Option C is incorrect because it is the fixed costs, not the break-even point.<\/p>\n<p>Option D is incorrect because it is not one of the possible answers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Rs 9,00,000&#8243; option2=&#8221;Rs 18,00,000&#8243; option3=&#8221;Rs 5,00,000&#8243; option4=&#8221;None of the above&#8221; correct=&#8221;option2&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[952],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-58074","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-costing","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The P\/v ratio of a company is 50% and margin of safety is 40%.
