Dinner cruise tickets sell for $50 per passenger. Ocean Cruiseline's variable cost of providing the dinner is $20 per passenger, and the fixed cost of operating the vessels (depreciation, salaries, docking fees, and other expenses) is $270,000 per month. Under these conditions, the breakeven point in tickets is 9,000 and the breakeven point in sales dollars is $450,000. Suppose Ocean Cruiseline embarks on a cost reduction drive and slashes fixed expenses from $270,000 per month to $255,000 per month. Read the requirements. 1.
