Answer:

selling price= $5

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

She figures out that her fixed costs will be $7,500 and her unit variable costs are $2 per raft. She plans to rent all 2,500 rafts she has on hand.

To calculate the break-even selling price, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

2,500= 7,500 / (selling price - 2)

2,500selling price - 5,000= 7,500

selling price= 12,500/2,500

selling price= $5
