Answer:

Break-even point in units= 12,562 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= 32*1.0015= 32.048

Unitary variable cost= 24*1.0015= 24.036

Fixed costs= 100,200*1.0016= 100,360.32

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

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

Break-even point in units= 100,360.32/(32.048 - 24.036)

Break-even point in units= 12,562 units
