Based on the amount to be sold and the intended level of earnings, the selling price per unit should be $3.40

The Contribution margin needed is:

= Fixed cost + Required earnings

= 250,000 + 260,000

= $510,000

To get to this amount, the sales should be:

Contribution margin = Sales x ( Selling price - Variable cost)

510,000 = 250,000 × 0.6x

510,000 = 150,000x

x = 510,000 / 150,000

x = $3.40

In conclusion, the selling price is $3.40
