Q.2-

(i)  50%

(ii)  200,000 units

Step-by-step explanation

Q.2- (i) Budgeted Cost Price Structure Per Unit

Variable Cost  Rs. 10
Fixed Cost (Rs. 2,000,000 / 300,000 units) Rs. 6.67
Total Cost  Rs. 16.67
Profit (20% of cost) = (0.20 * 16.67) Rs. 3.33
Sale Price Rs. 20

Contribution per unit = Sale Price - Variable Cost = 20 - 10 = Rs. 10

The Profit Volume (P/V) Ratio is the measurement of the rate of change of profit due to change in volume of sales.

P/V ratio = (Contribution per unit / Sale Price) * 100%

P/V ratio = (10 / 20) * 100 = 50%

(ii) Break Even Point (in unit) = Total fixed cost / Contribution per unit

Break Even Point (in unit) = 2,000,000 / 10 

Break Even Point = 200,000 units
