Answer:

The correct answer is 48,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Estimated fixed costs = $288,000

Estimated variable costs / unit = $14

Estimated sells Price = $20

So, we can calculate the number of units sold at breakeven by using the following formula:

Breakeven point = Estimated fixed costs / Estimated sells Price - Estimated variable costs

So, by putting the value, we get

= $288,000 / $20 - $14

= $288,000 / $6

= 48,000

Hence, the units that will be sold at breakeven is 48,000.
