Answer:

26,000 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The break-even point is calculated by dividing fixed costs by the contribution margin per unit.

Fixed costs are $78,000

Contribution margin per unit = selling costs - variable costs

=$13-$10

Contribution margin per unit=$3

Break-even point = $7800/$3

=26,000 units
