Discussion 6.1 Cost Volume Profit

DESCRIPTION

Cost-volume-profit (CVP) analysis is an extension of break-even analysis. CVP analysis enables managers to understand cost behavior and the effect on profits in response to a wide variety of influences, such as changes in volume, variable and fixed costs, and price. This helps management make appropriate business decisions.

How would you use CVP analysis to develop a budget? Elaborate using examples.
