Question 2: Based on the information in the budget, find the break-even green fees for the golf course and the break-even admissions charges for the pool. You may assume that the volume of users will not change with increases in pricing.
You may also assume that the course will operate for a full 130 days

In this aspect, the calculation made is for the break-even fee amounts for the Golf course and pool. It is known that at the breakeven point, the total revenue (TR) amount is equivalent to the total expense or total cost (TC) (Brigham and Ehrhardt, 2013). In this case, there are the fixed revenues and variable revenues that do not have any relation to the green fees or the pool prices. This revenue will be designated as separate variable revenue (SVR). This revenue will be taken into account within the calculations:

Total Revenue = Total Cost (Weygandt et al., 2008).

This equation can be rewritten as follows

Variable revenue (VR) * Quantity + separate variable revenue (SVR) + Fixed Revenue (FR) = Fixed Cost (FC) + Variable Cost (VC) * Quantity

By subtracting SVR as well as FR from both of the sides of the equation and making rearrangement, the equation becomes:

VR * Q = (FC -- FR) + (VC * Q -- SVR)

By dividing both sides of the equation by Q, the equation changes and becomes

VR = (FC -- FR) + (VC * Q -- SVR) / Q

Fixed Expenses
