Based on the information given the desired profit per unit is $0.14 per unit.

First step is to find the unit using this formula

Units=Target sales revenue / Target selling price per unit

Units=$850500 / $4.05

Units =210,000

Second step is to calculate the desired profit per unit using this formula

Desired profit per unit=Target selling price per unit - (Target costs / Units)

Desired profit per unit=$4.05-($821250 / 210,000)

Desired profit per unit=$4.05- $3.91

Desired profit per unit=$0.14

Inconclusion the desired profit per unit is $0.14 per unit.
