Breakeven sales in units = Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

                                          = $ 8,000/$ 15 = 533.33 or 534 units

XYZ needs 534 units to breakeven.

2.

After tax profit = $ 60,000

Gross profit = after tax profit/ (1 - tax rate)

                                                          = $ 140,000 / $ 75

                                                          = 1,866.667 or 1,867 units
