Firms are not in competition with many other firms in every market structure. Some market structures such as monopolies or oligopolies feature either one single firm, or only a few firms, that frequently collude instead of competing.
Not all firms leave the market as soon as they lose profits. Some do, but others stay. A monopoly can survive decades without increasing its profits.
Not all firms will try to maximize profits, some will try to maximize market share instead, especially in perfectly-competitive market structures.

Answer:
Break even point in dollar sales = $1,050,000
Explanation:
Break Even Point in dollar sales = Fixed Cost/ Contribution margin percentage
Contribution margin percentage = (Contribution margin/ Sales) X 100
Here we have for the year 2017
Contribution margin = $194,750
Sales = $779,000
Contribution margin percentage = ($194,750/$779,000) X 100 = 25%
Break even point in dollar sales = Fixed Cost $262,500/25%
= $1,050,000
