Answer:

$225,000

Step-by-step explanation:

the break even formula = total fixed costs / contribution margin

  • break even in units = 750,000 units
  • contribution margin = 20% x $1.50 = $0.30

750,000 units = total fixed costs / $0.30

750,000 units x $0.30 = total fixed costs

total fixed costs = $225,000
