Answer:

72000

Step-by-step explanation:

Break even formula:

Break even in units=Fixed cost/Contribution margin per unit

= $ 36,000 / $ 6

= 6,000 Units

[Contribution margin=Sales price-Variable cost=12-6]

Break Even in Dollars = Break Even in Units * Selling Price Per Unit

= 6,000 Units * $ 12 Per Unit = $ 72,000
