  2. Cost–volume–profit analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost–volume–profit...

    A critical part of CVP analysis is the point where total revenues equal total costs (both fixed and variable costs). At this break-even point, a company will experience no income or loss. This break-even point can be an initial examination that precedes a more detailed CVP analysis.

  3. Break-even point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Break-even_point

    The Break-Even Point can alternatively be computed as the point where Contribution equals Fixed Costs. The quantity, ( P − V ) {\displaystyle \left(P-V\right)} , is of interest in its own right, and is called the Unit Contribution Margin (C): it is the marginal profit per unit, or alternatively the portion of each sale that contributes to ...

    The break-even analysis determines the point which the business's revenue is equivalent to the costs required to receive that revenue. It first calculates a margin of safety (the point which the revenue exceeds the break-even point) as that is the "safe" amount which the revenue can fall whilst still remaining to be above the break-even point. [30]

    In nuclear fusion research, the term break-even refers to a fusion energy gain factor equal to unity; this is also known as the Lawson criterion. The notion can also be found in more general phenomena, such as percolation. In energy, the break-even point is the point where usable energy gotten from a process equals the input energy.

  6. Ski rental problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ski_rental_problem

    However, with no advance knowledge of how long one will be skiing, the breakeven point is unclear. A good algorithm will minimize the ratio of the cost when the number of days is known in advance to the cost when the number of days is not known in advance. [2] Ski rental [3] [4] is one example of this class of problem.

  7. Negative income tax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_income_tax

    If the break-even income would be $3000, after filing the tax report, family A would pay the tax on $1000 while family B would be entitled to receive, assuming the 50% NIT rate, $500. Meaning half of the difference between what they earn and the break-even income. Therefore, a family with $0 income would be entitled to receive $1500 in subsidy.

    Transformation problem: The transformation problem is the problem specific to Marxist economics, and not to economics in general, of finding a general rule by which to transform the values of commodities based on socially necessary labour time into the competitive prices of the marketplace. The essential difficulty is how to reconcile profit in ...

  9. Cost breakdown analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_breakdown_analysis

    The cost breakdown analysis is even more effective when repeated constantly, so that changes in the respective shares in total costs of the various cost drivers can be tracked down. Over a five-year period, the share of expenses for tires might have risen from 5% to 8%, accompanied by a decrease of expenses for personnel from 35% to 32%, which ...
