The break-even point is the sales level at which the total sales revenue is the same as the total costs.
What is break-even point?
The break-even point for any company is the point at which its total sales revenue is the same as its total costs( i.e. total variable costs plus overheads).
At the break-even point. the firm in question makes neither gain nor loss, in that it is only able to recover all of its costs, which is an indication that the business would soon be able to make profits because it has been able to move the point of losses to the point zero profit.
It is incorrect to calculate break-even point as costs of goods being equal other expenses, the revenue has not been considered.
Also, when total sales is the same fixed costs, only fixed costs have been recovered, the variable costs are still outstanding, the same applies to the situation where the total sales is the same as the variable costs, the fixed costs have also not been recovered.
Overall, at breakeven point, total sales equate total costs, all costs, hence, the option(a) is correct.
