Answer:

D). 200 units

Step-by-step explanation:

As per contribution margin concepts, the break-even point is calculated using the formula.

Break-even point = fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit.

fixed cost is $2,000

Contribution margin per unit = sales price-variable costs

= $20- $10 = $10

Break-even point = $2000/10

=200 units
