Answer:

Break-even point in units= 120 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following formula:

Selling price= $17.5

Unitary cost= $15

Fixed costs= $300

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 300 / (17.5 - 15)

Break-even point in units= 120 units
