The price per calendar is $10. What is the break-even point in units?

Break-even point in units= 8,000 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable costs:

Direct materials $1.50

Direct labor 1.20

Variable overhead 0.90

Variable marketing expense 0.40

Total variable costs= 4

Fixed costs:

The fixed marketing expense totaled $13,000

The fixed administrative expense totaled $35,000.

Total fixed costs= $48,000

The price per calendar is $10.

To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 48,000/ (10 - 4)

Break-even point in units= 8,000 units
