break even analysis. suppose a certain product sells for a dollars per unit. then the revenue from selling x units of the product is ax dollars if the cost of producting each unit of the product is b dollars and the company has overhead cost of c dollars then the total cost of producing x unit of the product is bx + c dollars. write a programe. ( note revenue is the amount of money received from the sale of the product . the value of a, b and c are called the marginal revenue, marginal cost and fixed cost respectively. the break even point is the value of x for which the revenue equals the total cost. write program that request the marginal revenue. write a program that request the marginal revenue, marginal cost, fixed cost and number of units of the product produced and sold (x) and then displays one of the following three output : profit, loss or break even.
We will be glad to help you out if you have difficulties in making pseudocode, checking logic, debugging, or suggesting alternatives or algorithms.
You have to show your work to have a starting point. You must have learned something from school to get started somewhere. If not, tell us what you've learned, and what you know. We'll take if from there.
To write a program that calculates the break-even point, profit, or loss for a given product, you can use the following code in Python:
```python
def break_even_analysis():
revenue = float(input("Enter the marginal revenue: "))
cost = float(input("Enter the marginal cost: "))
fixed_cost = float(input("Enter the fixed cost: "))
units = int(input("Enter the number of units sold: "))
total_cost = (cost * units) + fixed_cost
if revenue * units > total_cost:
print("Profit")
elif revenue * units < total_cost:
print("Loss")
else:
print("Break Even")
break_even_analysis()
```
Explanation:
1. The function `break_even_analysis()` is defined to encapsulate the break-even analysis logic.
2. The input prompts ask for the marginal revenue, marginal cost, fixed cost, and the number of units sold.
3. The total cost is calculated by multiplying the cost per unit by the number of units and adding the fixed cost.
4. The conditions check if the total revenue (revenue * units) is greater than, less than, or equal to the total cost.
5. The corresponding output message is displayed based on the condition results.
You can run this program in any Python environment or IDE, and it will prompt you for the required inputs and then display the break-even analysis result.
