Correct option is C
The correct answer is (c) Situation when firm has neither profit nor loss.
The Break-Even Point (BEP) is the level of output or sales at which a firm’s total revenue is exactly equal to its total costs (both fixed and variable costs). At this point:
The firm neither makes a profit nor incurs a loss.
The contribution margin (sales revenue minus variable costs) covers the fixed costs exactly.
Key Characteristics:
Profitability Beyond BEP: If sales exceed the BEP, the firm starts generating profits.
Loss Below BEP: If sales fall short of the BEP, the firm incurs a loss.
Additional Information:
Profit Situation: Happens when revenue > total costs.
Loss Situation: Happens when revenue < total costs.
