Answer:

1. Total fixed costs to $190,000 ________ Break Even Sales Volume in Units 316,666.67

2. Variable costs to $34 per unit _________ Break Even Sales Volume in Units = 260357. 14

3. Selling price per unit to $80  ----------Break Even Sales Volume in Units =254545.45

Explanation:

SBD Phone Company

Without Changes

Break Even Sales Volume in Dollars= Fixed Costs/ 1- (variable Costs/ Sales)

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/1- (36/ 90)

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/1=0.4

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/0.6

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =270000

1.When  Total fixed costs are changed to $190,000

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$190,000/0.6= 316,666.67

The increase in fixed costs shows an unfavorable increase in break even units

2. When Variable costs are changed to  to $34 per unit

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/1- (34/ 90)

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/0.622

Break Even Sales Volume in Units = 260357. 14

The decrease in  Variable costs  shows a  favorable decrease in break even units

3. When Selling price is changed to $80

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/1- (36/ 80)

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =$162,000/0.55

Break Even Sales Volume in Units =254545.45

The decrease in  Selling price  shows a  favorable decrease in break even units

Yes it is necessary to compute new break-even points because this is how we can see the changes in units and the effects of the changes.
