Answer:

Break-even point in units= 10,375

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Selling price= $25

Fixed cost= $64,000

Break-even point in units= 8,000

First, we need to determine the unitary contribution margin:

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

8,000 = 64,000 / contribution margin per unit

contribution margin per unit8,000= 64,000

contribution margin per unit= 64,000 / 8,000

contribution margin per unit= $8

Now, the number of units to be sold to make a profit of $19,000:

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

Break-even point in units= (64,000 + 19,000) / 8

Break-even point in units= 10,375
