             Impact of factors

             •    All other factors remaining the same:

                    •     An increase in selling price per unit will increase the contribution

                          per unit and decrease the break-even sales required.

                    •     An increase in variable cost per unit will decrease the contribution

                          per unit and increase the break-even sales required.

                    •     An increase in total fixed cost will increase the sales required to

                          break-even.

             •    Generally, you will first have to determine the nature of the costs

                  before proceeding with the break-even calculation.
