They are considering two methods for computing each product's break-even point unlt sales: Method #include each product's traceable fixed costs and an allocated share of the common fixed costs in the numerator of each break-even calculation. The common fixed costs would be allocated to the three products using soles dollars as the allocation base. Method #2.
