Class Objectives • Cost Volume Profit (CVP) analysis as a simplistic but powerful form of financial modeling • The application of Cost Volume Profit (CVP) analysis to a context: Cloudwalkers
Financial Models: CVP Analysis • Cost-Volume-Profit (CVP) analysis is the study of the effect of output volume on revenue, expense and net income • Managers use CVP analysis to try and obtain the most profitable combination of variable and fixed costs • Computers allow the manager to use a CVP modeling program to extensively and at minimal cost analyze relationships and to remove simplistic assumptions
Financial Modeling: Sensitivity Analysis • CVP provides structure to answer a variety of “what-if” scenarios. • “What” happens to profit “if”: • Change in Fixed costs: • Changes in fixed expenses cause changes in the break-even point • If all else is the same the break-even will change at the same percentage as fixed costs change • Change in Selling Price • Change in Variable Costs • Change in Sales Mix
Case: Cloudwalkers • Who: Rick Fodemesi, • Director and son of founder • What: 20,000 footwear order Sears • Why: Agree on price; • $23.75 wholesale vs. $15 to $18 • When: a few weeks, meeting scheduled
Cloudwalkers: Company • Business began with footwear for people with sore feet • Expanded into footwear for women • Rick joined his Father after education in UWO • Manufacturing and retail sales operate in same building • Two product lines: • Cloudwalkers – casual sandal • Reactivators – dress sandal
Cloudwalkers: Production • Current production • 3,000 pairs • Capacity • 26,000 pairs (500 x 52 weeks) • Additional Volume (Sears) • 20,000 pairs • Fixed costs • $9,000 (3000 @ $3) • Not easily traceable as wholesale and retail facilities are closely related • O/H includes: repair, maintenance, depreciation, rent, utilities • Additional Volume Fixed Costs • $700 (dye)
Cloudwalkers: Qualitative • Sears is a large customer & would increase volume • From 3000 to 23,000 (20,000) • Eggs in one basket (90% of capacity to one customer) • Effect on other customers • Capacity limitation – could handle year 1 but not more than 23,000 pairs • Availability of labor pool • Son is younger and maybe more risk raking
Cloudwalkers: Qualitative (Cont’d) • Availability of direct materials (e.g. soles from German suppliers were not received on a timely basis) • Sales target reasonability (i.e.. 20,000 hi/lo) • Any financing of increased direct materials and labor • How flexible is Cloudwalkers production process (i.e., can they meet an uneven demand requests)?

Cost of an Egg: The Egg • Eggs offer egg-ceptional nutrition. Eggs are unique in that they contain nearly every nutrient known to be essential to humans.. • Eggs are one of nature's most nutritious foods. One large egg contains only 70 calories and an incredible amount of nutrition. • http://eggs.ca/egg-nutrition/whats-in-an-egg • Eggs resemble submarine hulls and are among the strongest things known to the human race.
