HELP PLEASEEEE ASAP

A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as editing) and variable costs (such as printing). The one-time fixed costs will total $29,521. The variable costs will be $12 per book. The publisher will sell the finished product to bookstores at a price of $25.25 per book. How many books must the publisher produce and sell so that the production costs will equal the money from sales?

Answer:

2,228

Explanation:

Each unit will make 13.25 in profit before incorporating the one time cost. This means that 29,521/13.25= the amount needed to break even.
