Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To break even, the sales price per unit must cover the variable cost per unit plus any additional costs. Variable cost per unit is $420,000 / 70,000 = $6.00. Additional cost per unit for shipping is $6,300 / 3,000 = $2.10. Therefore, the break-even sales price per unit is $6.00 + $2.10 = $8.10.
