Costs And Break-even Analysis

Muhtasari

Every business needs to know how much it costs to operate and how many units it must sell before it starts making a profit. Getting these numbers wrong can mean running out of cash long before a single customer walks through the door.

In this lesson you will learn the difference between fixed and variable costs, calculate total cost and average cost, and master break-even analysis - the tool that tells a business exactly when revenue catches up with costs. These skills appear regularly on both Edexcel papers, often as structured calculation questions worth several marks.

Malengo

  1. Understand the concept and calculate revenue, fixed and variable costs, total costs, profit and loss
  2. Understand the concept of break-even and calculate break-even level of output from formula or diagram
  3. Interpret break-even charts: the impact of changes in revenue and costs, limitations of break-even charts

Maelezo ya Somo

A street-food vendor pays rent on a market stall whether she sells ten burritos or two hundred. The flour, beans and wrapping, on the other hand, cost more the more she sells. Understanding which costs move with output and which stay put is the first step to working out whether a business idea can actually make money.
