Answer:

65,000 units

Explanation:

Let the number of units be sold = x

Operating Income= Sales- Variable cost – Fixed Cost

Operating Income = 40x - 24x - 560,000

Operating Income = 16x - 560,000

Return on Investment = Operating Income / Net Operating Assets  

16% = (16x - 560,000  )/ 3,000,000

480,000 = 16x - 560,000

16x = 480,000 + 560,000

16x = 1,040,000

x = 65,000 units
