Question: a. The base Profit and Loss Statement is : Base P&L Statement Sales 50000 Variable cost per visit 30000 Fixed Cost 15000 Profit 5000 The
a. The base Profit and Loss Statement is :
| Base P&L Statement | |
| Sales | 50000 |
| Variable cost per visit | 30000 |
| Fixed Cost | 15000 |
| Profit | 5000 |
The projected Profit and Loss statement is:
| Projected P&L | |
| Sales | 54000 |
| Variable cost | 36000 |
| Fixed Cost | 20000 |
| Profit (negative indicates loss) | -2000 |
The firm should not make the proposed changes since there is a projected loss and no profit
b. The visit voulm should be 1,334 patients for Triangle pedriatics to break even. (This figure has been arrived at by trial and error)
So, visit volume should be increased by = 1334-1200 = 134 patients
So, Triangle pedriatics needs 134 patients more than the projected 1200 patients to break even. The new P&L statement is as shown below (with 1334 patients)
| New P&L | |
| Sales | 60030 |
| Variable cost | 40020 |
| Fixed Cost | 20000 |
| Profit | 10 |
