Please solve this-
Sales value - 30,00,000 less Varaible Cost - 7,50,000 Contribution - 22,50,000 Contribution per unit = 22,50,000/6000 = 375
Break even point = 8,40,000/375 = 2240 /12 = 187 patient days to reac break even poin. |

Thanks sir !!..for your kind help. It still remains doubtful to me why you divided by 12 at the end. | |
12 months...........
6000 patients days for the whole year & so i divided with 12 months for calculating month break even point.
