Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the number of units sold, use the formula: Profit = (Contribution Margin per Unit * Units Sold) - Fixed Costs. Rearranging gives Units Sold = (Profit + Fixed Costs) / Contribution Margin per Unit. Substituting the given values: Units Sold = ($30,000 + $314,000) / $8 = 43,000 units.
