Ask Custom Question

This assignment needs to deal with the McDonald's Corporation.

Identify any activity in the organization where you can apply breakeven analysis. You must be able to define:

* A unit of measurement for the activity
* Revenue per unit for the activity
* Variable costs for the activity
* Fixed costs for the period in the activity

If you cannot identify specific actual amounts, make a reasonable estimate (and indicate the method or source of information for that estimate) and apply the tool as if the data were factual.

Required:

Your report should include

* The name and nature of the organization
* The activity and time period you used
* The inputs you used and the source for those inputs
* Your results
* Any implications from your results

In other words, you must do a break-even analysis using the numerical calculations.

Assignment Expectations:

The submission needs to include the break-even analysis in a tabular format as well as a discussion interpreting the analysis. Answer all questions and include references in APA format.
