suppose you invest $12,000 in equipment to manufacture a new board game. Each game costs $5 in materials to manufacture and you plan to sell them for $20. How many games must you make to break even?

Each game costs $5 to make and earns you $20, so you profit $15 from each game. Therefore you would have to make 12000/15 = 800 games to break even.
