Refer to the original data ($30 ticket price per person). Prepare a Cost –Volume – Price (CVP) graph for the Extravaganza from a zero level of activity up to 600 tickets sold. Number of persons should be placed on the horizontal (X) axis, and dollars should be placed on the vertical (Y) axis4. Write two pros and two cons associated with the use of the Break even analysis as a planning tool.

- APPLY THE CONCEPTS: Use the CVP graph to analyze the effects of changes in price and costs Graph the following on your own paper. At the original position, the break-even point in sales dollars is $24,000 at 500 units. The fixed costs are $8,000. Assume the slope of the sales line is equal to the selling price. When the two points of the sales line are at the origin and the break-even point, you see that the slope of the line is $48, which means that the selling price is $ When the two points of the total costs line are at the origin and the break-even point, you see that the slope of the line is $32.00, which means that the variable cost per unit is $ Leave the break-even point (x) at its original position. Use it as a reference point to answer the following questions. Analyze the scenarios by sliding the points on the lines to get the slope desired.

- Take into account the possibility of raising the cost of a good with an 8% profit margin. Calculate the effect of this price increase on the profit margin if you could raise the price by 1% while keeping the sales volume (in unit terms) at the same level as before the price increase.

To compete with larger banks, NB pays depositors 0.3 percent on all deposits. A recent study classified the bank's annual operating costs into four activities.
