The accuracy of cost-volume-profit analysis is limited because it assumes a strictly linear relationship between the variables.

(A) True

(B) False

True

Explanation:

One of the assumptions of this analysis is that it assumes a linear dependence on costs and income in the analysis interval.

A very useful tool when making strategic decisions, allowing to analyze different scenarios and individual projects, is the Cost-Volume-Profit.

Analysis (CVP) that works under the premise that variable costs increase in the same proportion that increases the sales of a product, while the fixed ones are independent of the volume of sales.

The CVP is useful both for planning and for evaluating results since it emphasizes the behavior of variable costs and the impact that a variation in sales volume can have on costs and benefits.
