Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The above is an incomplete question. The concluding parts are assuming the following;

Selling price per unit = $54

Current total variable cost = $24.50

Total fixed cost = $69,000

New variable cost will increase by ($2.26 - $1.76)/2 = $0.25

New variable cost will be = ($24.50 + $0.25) = $24.75

Contribution margin = ($54 - $24.75) = $29.25

New fixed cost = ($0.25 × 2,339) + $69,000 = $69,585

Note:

Old break even units = $69,000/$29.5 = 2,335 units

Therefore,

New break even units

= Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $69,585/$29.5

= 2,397 units

Cozy would have to sell 2,397 units as opposed to 2,335 units in order to break even.
