Within this 18-minute video, you will observe:
- The construction of a chart in Excel to show the exact point for break even. The exact break-even point may need to be rounded to be a whole integer (not with decimal points).
- How to construct a line graph/chart in Excel.
- Construct a chart within Excel to plan how many units must be sold to break even and how many to sell to make a target profit of $10,000 in your project. You should make up all other numbers for this project.
- Create a columnar analysis spreadsheet to show Sales, Variable Costs, Contribution Margin, Fixed Costs, Total Costs, Net Income, and any other information you wish for your project with all columns being clearly identified in a spreadsheet.
- Compete a sensitivity analysis (what-if analysis) that examines how a result will change if the original predicted data or underlying assumption changes. This type of data can be presented with assumptions for different scenarios, such as that described on p. 214 of your textbook.
- Plot break-even point on the exact point as calculated and rounded in your spreadsheet.
- Format the break-even point in color.
