Dear Shilpa Maam,

I have a question w.r.t to the above question aswel.

How can the Variable cost be same i.e (Rs. 60). Why not Revised Selling Price * 60% (100% - 40%) - So the revised Variable cost would be Rs.48 (80*60%).

Regards,

Arihant

Hello friends, I have a problem to solve :

In a company,the pv ratio is 40%.by what percentage must sales be increased to maintain the same contribution,when(a) 10% reduction in selling price..(b)20% decrease in selling price.....

CMA Shilpa example was very well explained. You can also try the MR=MC function to see if it maximises your profits, I never did that
