Answer:

134 books

Explanation:

The breakeven point is the number of units to be sold that will make the total sales equivalent with the total cost, such that the company neither makes a profit nor a loss.

Let the number of units sold to break even be c

5c = 1.25c + 500

5c - 1.25c = 500

3.75c = 500

c = 500/3.75

c = 133.33

≈ 134 books

Answer:

134 books

Explanation:

The formula used to calculate the break even point in units is:

break even point = total fixed costs / contribution margin

  • total fixed costs = $500
  • contribution margin = selling price - variable costs = $5 - $1.25 = $3.75

break even point = $500 / $3.75 = 133.3 books ≈ 134 books
