    Thank you a lot, I need this for my GCSE business exam in a few weeks and your video has really simplified what we were told in class. The margin for instance, always confused me as I never understood why it matters about safety as long as you are profitable - but now I understand it is the amount you can lose before making loss. Thank you again!

For that reason, I would like to ask if you or anyone could help me to understand some pros and cons of BEA to a business. Thank you so much!

    • @TakingTheBiz
      @TakingTheBiz  6 лет назад

      Usually, variable costs do't appear on break even charts as they are part of the total cost line. At different levels of output, the variable costs can be seen as the difference between the fixed costs and the total costs.

    If we had sales revenue and fixed costs on the graphs how would we work out total costs

    • @TakingTheBiz
      @TakingTheBiz  4 года назад

      You would need to know the variable cost per unit.
      You would then multiply this variable cost per unit by a level of output anywhere on the X axis to get the total variable costs at that level of output.
      Add that total to the fixed costs to get the total costs at that level of output.
      Draw a line from the start of the fixed cost line above 0 output through the total costs point you have calculated. That would show the total costs line.

    • @TakingTheBiz
      @TakingTheBiz  5 лет назад +1

      It's often based on estimated costs and prices, so the figures used to calculate break even may not be the figures the business encounters in reality.
      Also, it is less useful for businesses that sell a range of products at various different prices. They need to calculate an average price of the products they sell to calculate their break even level of output, which can be less accurate.

  • @dwtdwt6768
    @dwtdwt6768 4 года назад

    I understand what the graph means. But I don’t understand how for example for the total costs how do u know where to place the line and the sales revenue why is it in that line in that place in particular

    • @TakingTheBiz
      @TakingTheBiz  4 года назад

      Because the lines are plotted onto the diagram based on a table of data that would display what the sales revenue is at different levels of output or what the total costs are at different levels of output.
      So whoever has drawn the diagram has worked out exactly where the lines should be drawn by plotting each one based on the data they have calculated about the business.
      Hope this helps.

    • @TakingTheBiz
      @TakingTheBiz  6 лет назад +5

      The larger the margin of safety, the more sales could fall by before the business returns to its break even point.
      If the margin of safety increases, the advantages would be that the business is more secure, generating more revenue, has output that is even further beyond the break even point and making more profit. If the margin of safety is increasing, then the business may also experiences some of the economies of scale associated with increasing output

    Is margin of safety is exactly the Net profit, if it is why they don't call it Net profit?

    • @TakingTheBiz
      @TakingTheBiz  4 года назад +2

      They are different concepts. Net profit is expressed in £'s.
      The margin of safety is expressed in units. It is the number of products/units output could fall by before the business returns to its break even level of output.
      For example, if a business needs to produce 50 products to break even, but is actually managing to produce 80 products, then they are producing above their break even level of output by 30 units. Consequently, output could drop by 30 units and the business would still be breaking even. Their margin of safety is 30.
      The profit that they are making if they manage to sell all 80 units that they produce would be expressed in £££££'s and is a different concept.

After three years the machine is worthless. If Keynes, Inc buys the machine, it must make a deposit of $ 2 million today and pay a further $11 million two years from now. Keynes, Inc has a minimum acceptable rate of return policy on investments set at 5%.

    this is problem or question i need help on, Mary is a second year college student and wants to earn some extra pocket money. She is good with making hamburgers, so she is considering opening up a hamburger stall on weekends at the local flea market near the campus.
    After investigating, she found the following; She can rent an exclusive site for R300 a day, payable in cash. This site can be rented for 10 hours per day. The existing major competitor in the flea market is selling hamburgers at R15 each. She reckons she will do well if she can sell a better quality double cheese burger at the same price.
    She further decided to rent a fully equipped trailer, custom made for a hamburger stall with all additional accessories e.g. signboards, gas etc. The rent is R460 per day.
    She would like to generate a salary of R500 per day plus an additional R240 per day for her little sister that would like to help her and also earn a little money.
    Mary further found that the ingredients of 1 hamburger add up to exactly R5. She also decided to rent a sing to fit about the trailer for R500 per day.
    Mary would like know; How many hamburgers must she sell per day to cover her cost?
    Motivate your answer by;
    * Completing the table
    * Drawing all the lines on the graph
    * calculating the BEP
    So in the table they gave me this, in columns
    Hamburgers Fixed cast Cost/unit Selling Price Income Variable cost Total cost
    0
    50
    100
