A)  The break-even point in total will not change.The only change will be the relative number of each of the units. B)  Neither the break-even point in total nor the relative number of each of the units to produce at break-even will change. C)  The break-even point will change because the calculation above assumes a constant mix,namely 60 per cent to 40 per cent. D)  The break-even point will be higher.

Which of the following are advantages of an activity-based costing approach to cost volume profit (CVP) analysis as compared to a CVP analysis based on traditional product costing?


A) Unit variable costs are recognised more clearly.
B) Fixed costs are viewed as fixed only with respect to changes in sales and production volume,but not as fixed with respect to changes in other cost drivers such as number of set-ups and number of material moves.
C) The assumption in traditional CVP analysis that sales and production volumes are equal can be relaxed.
D) Unit variable costs are recognised more clearly AND fixed costs are viewed as fixed only with respect to changes in sales and production volume,but not with respect to changes in other cost drivers such as number of set-ups and number of material moves.
