1. The CVP graph can be plotted using the three steps outlined in the text.
The graph appears on the next page.
Step 1. Draw a line parallel to the volume axis to represent the total
fixed expense. For this company, the total fixed expense is $24,000.
Step 2. Choose some volume of sales and plot the point representing
total expenses (fixed and variable) at the activity level you have se-
lected. We’ll use the sales level of 8,000 units.
Fixed expense ... $ 24,000
Variable expense (8,000 units × $18 per unit)... 144,000
Total expense... $168,000
Step 3. Choose some volume of sales and plot the point representing
total sales dollars at the activity level you have selected. We’ll use the
sales level of 8,000 units again.
Total sales revenue (8,000 units × $24 per unit) ... $192,000
