The document discusses several economic concepts including break even analysis, government intervention in market prices, economic liberalization, and disinvestment.
Break even analysis is used to determine the sales volume needed for revenue to equal costs. It involves calculating fixed costs and variable costs per unit to find the break even point. Government intervention aims to correct market failures through policies like price ceilings, price floors, and public distribution systems. Economic liberalization lessens government regulations to increase private participation in industries. Disinvestment involves governments or organizations selling public sector assets to private entities as a method of privatization.
3. In economics, the break even point is the
point at which revenue equals expenses.
In investing, the break even point is the point
at which gains equal losses.
BREAK EVEN POINT
4. 1.Determine Variable Unit Costs
2.Determine Fixed Costs
3.Determine Unit Selling Price
4.Determine sales Volume & Unit

5.Creating a Graph
FIVE STEPS TO
ESTIMATE BREAK
EVEN POINT
5. 1. Equation method:
SP*N=VC*N+FC
Where;
SP-sales price unit per unit.
N-number of units
VC-variable cost
FC-total fixed cost
2. Contribution margin method:
Total fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit
Contribution= VC-SP
3.Graphical Presentation:

Company Mission-
To become the preferred leading European air carrier with a global
network of coverage thanks to its strict compliance with flight safety ,
reliability , product line, service quality and competitiveness while
maintaining its identity as the flag carrier of the Republic of Turkey in
the civil air transportation industry.
CASE STUDY:
TURKISH AIRLINES
9. 1} TURKISH AIRLINE has a total FC of 2 million tl
and VC of 3000tl and each seat in the aircraft sells
at 5000tl.How many seats will Turkish Airline have
to sell in 1 day to break even?
Sol:
FC=2,000,000 tl , VC=3000 tl , P=5000 tl
BE quantity= TFC/(P-VC) =2,000,000/(5000-3000)
= 1000 seats
10. 2} If Turkish Airlines were to sell a total of
2000 seats ,how much profit would it make?
Sol:
Profit=(R-VC)-FC
R=P*no. of seats = 5000*2000= 10,000,000
VC=VC* no. of seats=3000*2000=6,000,000
Profit=(10,000,000-6,000,000)-2,000,000
=2,00,000 tl
11. ADVANTAGES AND USES
Break even analysis enables a business organization to:
1.Measure profit and losses at different levels of production and sales.
2.Predict the effect of changes in sales prices.
3.Analyze the relationship between fixed and variable costs
4.For managerial analysis like product planning, activity planning,
safety margin etc.
12. DISADVANTAGES
1.Assumes the sales prices are constant at all levels of output.
2.Assumes production and sales are the same.
3.Break even charts maybe time consuming to prepare.
4.It can only apply to a single product or single mix of products.
14. Regulatory actions taken by a government in order to
affect or interfere with decisions made by individuals,
groups, or organizations regarding social and economic
matters.
15. NEED FOR GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION:
• Correct the market failures
• Promote general welfare of the people
• To achieve a more equitable distribution of income and wealth
• To improve the performance of the economy
17. CONTROL PRICE
• To control the maximum prices that can be charged by suppliers for the
commodity.
• To make commodities affordable to the general public.
• Prolonged application of a price ceiling can lead to black marketing and unrest
in the supply side.

20. • Ceiling prices on Uber ride service during peak hours
Supply demands problems due to:
• Shortage of drivers
• Longer waiting time
• Deadweight loss
21. SUPPORT PRICE
• A price floor is a government- or group-imposed price control or limit on
how low a price can be charged for a product.
• Great importance in the labour-wage market
• Price floor must be higher than the equilibrium price in order to be
effective.
22.
23. EXAMPLES:
• Minimum Support Price (MSP) - form of government intervention by
the insure agricultural producers against any sharp fall in farm price
• MSP announced by the Government at the beginning of the sowing
season for certain crops on the basis of the recommendations of the
Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP).
• To protect the producer - farmers - against excessive fall in price during
bumper production years.
25. TOKEN PRICE
• Some goods and services are necessary for the existence of life e.g.
medical services, education services , etc.
• Government provides these services at a price which is much below
even their per unit cost of production- token price
• Token price is charged in order to prevent the wasteful use of these
services
26. DUAL PRICING
• Dual pricing is a situation in which the same product or service is sold at
different prices in different markets.
27. PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
• This scheme was launched in the current form in June 1947.
• Under this scheme the State Government through Government of India
distributes the items such as wheat, rice, etc in ration shops at different prices
28. Item Rate (APL) Rate (BPL) Rate (AAY)
Rice Rs. 889.98 pQ Rs.611.75 pQ Rs.3/kg
Wheat Rs. 659 pQ Rs.454.26.pQ Rs.2/kg
Kerosene Rs. 9.40-9.80/lit
Under this scheme the State Government through Government of India distributes the
following items:
The Beneficiaries under this scheme are divided into three categories
APL - Above poverty line
BPL - Below poverty line (Identified by ADC (D))
AAY - Poorest of poor amongst BPL families (Identified by ADC (D))

30. ECONOMIC LIBERALISATION
It is the lessening of government regulations and
restrictions in an economy in exchange for greater
participation by private entities.
Fastest growing economies– Brazil, China, India
32. FACTORS THAT LED TO LIBERALISATION
Fixed exchange
rate system
Balance of Payments Crisis
since 1985
Central bank refused
new credit
Depletion of foreign
exchange reserves IMF bailout
37. • The action of an organization or government selling or
liquidating an asset or subsidiary.
• It is a method of privatization of the public sector enterprises,
(started in 1992 in India)
WHAT IS DISINVESTMENT?
38. OBJECTIVES OF DISINVESTMENT
• To reduce financial burden on government
• To improve public finances
• To introduce competition and market discipline
• For fund growth
40. MINORITY DISINVESTMENT
• Government retains majority stake in the company (> 51 %)
• Minority stakes can either be :
Auctioned off to financial institutions
Eg: Andrew Yule and co. Ltd. , CMC Ltd.
Offloaded to public by way of an offer or sale
Eg: Power electronic corp. of India ltd. , NTPC Ltd.
41. MAJORITY DISINVESTMENT
• Government retains a minority stake in the company.
• Majority stakes can either be :
Typically made to strategic partners
Eg.BRPL to IOC , MRL to IOC etc.
The stake can also be offloaded by way of an offer or sale
42. COMPLETE PRIVATISATION
Form of majority disinvestment where, 100% control of a
company is passed onto a buyer
Eg. 18 Hotel properties of ITDC
43. DISINVESTMENT PRIVATISATION
1. Could be limited to a level which would
permit govt. to retain control over
organisation (<50%)
2. Either the government stake is diluted to a
level where it results in the transfer of
management (>50%)
1. A change in ownership resulting in a
change in management.
2. Occurs only when the government sells
more than 50% of its ownership to private
companies
44. MERITS OF DISINVESTMENT
• Quick decision making, linked to competitive market changes
• Better corporate governance
• Exposure to competition
• Corporate responsibility
• Improvement in work environment
• Loss making PSUs can be successfully revived
45. DEMERITS OF DISINVESTMENT
• Loss of regular source of income to the govt.
• Loss of assets
• Disposal of both profit making and potentially viable PSUs
47. In 2000, it had a turnover of Rs.898 crores and a
profit after tax of Rs. 56 crores.
In February 2001, the Government of India (GoI)
approved the sale of its 51% stake in aluminium major,
Balco to SIL, for Rs. 551.5 crores.
The move was opposed by opposition parties and
workers of BALCO went on a strike.
Negotiation with workers
Disinvestment of BALCO by govt. followed by
Privatisation
Editor's Notes
liberalization in short is "the removal of controls" in order to encourage economic development.
In developing countries, economic liberalization refers more to liberalization or further "opening up" of their respective economies to foreign capital and investments. Three of the fastest growing developing economies today; Brazil, China, and India, have achieved rapid economic growth in the past several years or decades, in part, from having "liberalized" their economies to foreign capital.
The economic liberalisation in India refers to the economic liberalisation, initiated in 1991, of the country's economic policies, with the goal of making the economy more market and service-oriented and expanding the role of private and foreign investment. Specific changes include a reduction in import tariffs, deregulation of markets, reduction of taxes, and greater foreign investment.
Three important components of the new eco policy 1991
Pre liberalization
Fixed exchange rate: difficult to maintain. Uses up lot of the country’s reserves
The 1991 Indian economic crisis had its roots in 1985 when India began having balance of payments problems as imports swelled, leaving the country in a twin deficit: the Indian trade balance was in deficit at a time when the government was running a large fiscal deficit. By the end of 1990 in the run-up to the Gulf War, the situation became so serious that the Indian foreign exchange reserves could barely finance three weeks’ worth of imports while the government came close to defaulting on its financial obligations. By July that year, the low reserves had led to a sharp devaluation of the rupee, which in turn exacerbated the twin deficit problem.[1] This led the government to airlift national gold reserves as a pledge to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in exchange for a loan to cover balance of payment debts.[2]
1. Devaluation:
To solve the balance of payment problem Indian currency were devaluated by 18 to 19%.
2. Disinvestment:
To make the LPG model smooth, many of the public sectors were sold to the private sector.
3. Allowing Foreign Direct Investment (FDI):
FDI was allowed in a wide range of sectors such as Insurance (26%), defense industries (26%) etc.
4. NRI Scheme:
The facilities which were available to foreign investors were also given to NRI's
Industrial Growth RateIndia has transitioned to be a service led economy, directly from an agrarian one. Foreign companies get free access to Indian markets and made domestic products un-competitive.Impact on AgricultureWorldwide implicit compulsion to develop Food Processing Industry is another landmark effect of globalization. Information technology being incorporated into agriculture to facilitate farming.IT IndustrySoftware, BPO, KPO, LPO industry boom in India has helped India to absorb big chunk of demographic dividend, which otherwise could have wasted.BankingPrivate banks such as ICICI, HDFC, Unit Linked Insurance plans, Travel Insurance, etc. have contributed significantly.Impact on small scale in IndiaColonization can be considered as first wave of globalization. With liberalization list of reserved items was substantially curtailed and many new sectors were thrown open to big players.
