  2. Contribution margin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contribution_margin

    Contribution margin (CM), or dollar contribution per unit, is the selling price per unit minus the variable cost per unit. "Contribution" represents the portion of sales revenue that is not consumed by variable costs and so contributes to the coverage of fixed costs. This concept is one of the key building blocks of break-even analysis. [1]

  3. Contribution margin-based pricing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contribution_margin-based...

    Contribution margin per unit is the difference between the price of a product and the sum of the variable costs of one unit of that product. Variable costs are all costs that will increase with greater unit sales of a product or decrease with fewer unit sales (as opposed to fixed costs, which are costs that will not change with sales level over an assumed possible range of sales levels).

  4. Cost–volume–profit analysis - Wikipedia

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

    Total costs = fixed costs + (unit variable cost × number of units) Total revenue = sales price × number of unit These are linear because of the assumptions of constant costs and prices, and there is no distinction between units produced and units sold, as these are assumed to be equal.

  5. Break-even point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Break-even_point

    It is only possible for a firm to pass the break-even point if the dollar value of sales is higher than the variable cost per unit. This means that the selling price of the goods must be higher than what the company paid for the good or its components for them to cover the initial price they paid (variable and fixed costs).

  6. Pricing strategies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pricing_strategies

    Variable pricing enables product prices to have a balance "between sales volume and income per unit sold". [32] Variable pricing strategy has the advantage of ensuring the sum total of the cost businesses would face in order to develop a new product. However, variable pricing strategy excludes the cost of fixed pricing.

  7. Variable cost - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_cost

    Fixed costs and variable costs make up the two components of total cost. Direct costs are costs that can easily be associated with a particular cost object. [2] However, not all variable costs are direct costs. For example, variable manufacturing overhead costs are variable costs that are indirect costs, not direct costs. Variable costs are ...

  8. Cost-plus pricing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost-plus_pricing

    The three stages of computing the selling price are computing the total cost, computing the unit cost, and then adding a markup to generate a selling price (refer to Fig 1). Fig 1: Cost-plus pricing steps. Step 1: Calculating total cost. Total cost = fixed costs + variable costs. Fixed costs do not generally depend on the number of units, while ...

  9. Cost curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_curve

    Average variable cost (AVC/SRAVC) (which is a short-run concept) is the variable cost (typically labor cost) per unit of output: SRAVC = wL / Q where w is the wage rate, L is the quantity of labor used, and Q is the quantity of output produced. The SRAVC curve plots the short-run average variable cost against the level of output and is ...
