Answer:

$23,000

Explanation:

Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the pension expense amount which is shown below:

Pension expense = service cost + interest cost - expected return on plan assets

= $18,000 + $5,000 - $10,000

= $13,000

Now the journal entry would be

Pension expense A/c Dr $13,000

Plan asset A/c Dr $10,000

        To PBO A/c $23,000

(Being the annual pension cost is recorded)

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

Selling price per unit= $480 per week

Total cost= fixed costs + unitary variable cost*number of units

Total cost= 192,000 + 320*number of weeks

<u>Now, the total revenue:</u>

Total revenue= selling price per week*Number of weeks

Total revenue= 480*x

<u>Finally, the break-even point in units:</u>

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

Break-even point in units= 192,000 / (480 - 320)

Break-even point in units= 1,200 campers
