dybincka [34]

<u>Solution:</u>

The price per variable unit is set at 1.5 times the cost; the VC / unit is estimated at $2.50.

Price = 2.5 * 2.50 = $6.25

Variable cost = $2.50

Fixed cost = $220,000

Break-Even Volume = Fixed cost / (Price - Variable cost)

                                  = $220.000 / (6.25 - 2.50)

Break-Even Volume = 58,667 units
