Answer:

Break-even point in units= 7,600

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $44

Unitary variable cost= $25

When 14,600 units are sold, profits equaled $133,000.

<u>First, we need to calculate the total fixed costs:</u>

Fixed costs= Total contribution margin - net income

Fixed costs= 14,600*(44 - 25) - 133,000

Fixed costs= $144,400

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

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

Break-even point in units= 144,400 / (44 - 25)

Break-even point in units= 7,600
