An increase in the unit (per pill) contribution margin.
Explanation:
Breakeven point is defined as the level of sales where total cost is equal to total revenue.
The formula is given as
Breakeven= Fixed cost ÷ (Sales revenue -Variable cost)
Note the Sales revenue less variable cost is the contributing margin.
Breakeven= Fixed cost ÷ Contributing margin
To reduce breakeven we must either reduce the numerator or increase the denominator.
In this case an increase in contributing margin will result in a decrease in breakeven amount of the company.
