Break EvenPont = Total Fixed Cost / (Sellingprice per unit - Variable cost per unit) Total Fixed Cost = $1500 + $4800 + $700 + $1000 =$8,000
Selling price per unit =$30
Variable cost per unit =$7 +$3
=$10
Break EvenPont = $8000 /$30-$10 = $8000/$20 = $4002
Sales - variable cost- fixed cost= Profit/loss Assume selling price per unit is x when 250persons 250x-250*10 - $8000 =0
250x -2500-8000 =0
250x
