43) What is meant by the term breakeven point? Why should a manager be concerned about the breakeven point and what helps them study the breakeven analysis?

Answer: The breakeven point is the level of production and sales at which total revenues equal total costs. Managers should be concerned about the breakeven point because it helps determine when a

business venture will be profitable. Breakeven point shows a company how far sales can decline before a net loss will be incurred. It helps to assess the risk of loss. The graph method helps managers visualize the relationships between total revenues and total costs. The graph shows each relationship as a line.
