Answer:

8.47

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the break-even point in units is:

Break-even point in units=Fixed costs/(Selling price per unit-Variable cost per unit)

Fixed costs= $500.000

Selling price per unit= $121,000

Variable cost per unit= $62,000

Break-even point in units=$500,000/($121,000-$62,000)

Break-even point in units=$500,000/59,000

Break-even point in units=8.47

According to this, the break-even point in units is 8.47.
