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
