At operating Break-even Point which of the following is true ?

  • A.Sales revenue just covers the fixed cost
  • B.Sales revenue is just equal to revenue variable cost
  • C.Fixed cost is same as that of variable cost
  • D.EBIT is zero

Answer: D

At the operating break-even point EBIT is zero.

The operating break-even point is the level of sales at which revenue just covers all operating costs, fixed and variable, so earnings before interest and tax are nil. In terms of contribution, total contribution equals fixed operating cost.

Sales revenue covering only the fixed cost would ignore variable cost. Equality of fixed and variable cost has nothing to do with break-even. The phrase 'revenue variable cost' in option B is not a defined measure.
