Answer:

A. 40,000 units

Explanation:

To break even, the total cost must be equal to the total revenue. The cost elements are the fixed and variable cost. The variable cost is dependent on the level of activities.

Let the number of units required to breakeven be g

cost = sale

30g + 240,000 = 36g

36g - 30g = 240000

6g = 240000

g = 40000

The company must produce and sell 40000 units to break even.
