The Knight Corporation projects that next year its fixed costs will total $240,000. Its only product sells for $34
per unit, of which $18 is a variable cost.
The management of Knight is considering the purchase of a new
machine that will lower the variable cost per unit to $14. The new machine, however, will add to fixed costs
through an increase in depreciation expense. How large can the addition to fixed costs be in order to keep the
firm's break-even point in units produced and sold unchanged?
Step 1 Compute the percent level of break-even output:
QB = F/(P-V) = $240,000/($34-$
