Alfa Co. produces a product that has a variable cost of $3.00 per unit. The company's fixed costs are $30,000. The product is sold for $5.00 per unit and the company desires to earn a target profit of $20,000. What is the amount of sales that will be necessary to earn the desired profit

Break-even point in units=  25,000

Break-even point (dollars)= $125,000

Explanation:

To calculate the number of units to be sold and the sales dollars required, we will use the break-even point analysis. The following formulas are required:

Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= (30,000 + 20,000) / (5 - 3)

Break-even point in units=  25,000

Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio

Break-even point (dollars)= 50,000 / (2/5)

Break-even point (dollars)= $125,000

the correct answer is economics is a game without winners or losers.

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.

the third answer is correct.
