Answer:

Instructions are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sales= $17,600 ($16.00 selling price per unit)

Contribution margin 7,920

Fixed expenses 3,600

First, we need to calculate the unitary contribution margin:

Units sold= 17,600/16= 1,100 units

Unitary contribution margin= 7,920/1,100= $7.2

Now, using the following formulas, we can calculate the break-even point in units and dollars:

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

Break-even point in units= 3,600/7.2= 500 units

Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 3,600/ (7.2/16)

Break-even point (dollars)=$8,000

The company will incur costs sifting through the applications to find suitable candidates.

This will be a waste of the company's resources as those resources could have been directed at getting prospective employees that would be a better fit with the company and have the relevant qualifications. This could have been done by going to a recruiting agency for instance.
