Solution:
Given information:
The fixed operating costs are$430,000.
The variable costs per unit are $2.95.
The selling price of the product is $4.50.
Calculation of the break-even point:
The formula to calculate the break-even point is:
Break-even point = Fixed costs / Selling price per unit -Variable costs per unit
= 430,000 / 4.50 - 2.95
= 430,000 / 1.55 = 277,419
Substitute $430,000 for the fixed costs, $2
