Through such evidence will be seen also the direction and big influence on gross profit partially or simultaneously and directly or strengthened by sales volume. Changes in production costs will likely be in the opposite direction to the change in gross profit, but how the direction changes in the market price of the gross profit? As well as at what the level of the sales volume will be obtained an optimum gross profit. The things that must be answered and be a long-term goal of this research.

By knowing the direction and magnitude of the effect of market prices and production costs on gross profit that matched the volume of sales, either partially or simultaneously, is expected to provide greater benefits for company management in making strategic decisions.

Samples were taken based on each harvest five times each year, for three years, as many as five breeder.

Findings from this study indicate that: (1) In order to avoid a negative effect on profits, management efforts to increase the prices, costs of production and sales volume, must be of equal value; (2) The sales volume can moderate the effect of production costs on gross profit, but can not moderate influence on the market price of the gross profit.
