Present production is 65 % of 700,000

==>455,000 units

Annual income ==> P450,000.

Annual fixed cost ==> P190,000

Variable cost ==> P0.35 per unit.

For 455,000 units variable cost

==> P0.35*455,000

==> 159,250.

Total Cost ==> P190,000 + P159,250 ==> P349,250.

Answer A)

Current Profit

==> Annual income-Total annual cost

==> P450,000-P349,250

==> P100,750.

B)

Break even point

==> Fixed cost/(Sale Price-Variable cost)

At 455,000 units and Revenue of P450,000. per unit

sale price ==> 450,000/455,000 ==> 0.99

Break even point ==> 190,000/(0.99-0.35)

==> 190,000/0.64

==> 296,875 units.

Break even sales

==> 296,875*0.99

==> P293,906.
