Required:
1. Compute the number of regular models and
deluxe models that must be sold to break even. Round all
intermediate calculations to four decimal places, and round your
final answers to the nearest whole unit.

2. Using information only from the total column
of the income statement, compute the sales revenue that must be
generated for the company to break even. Round the contribution
margin ratio to four decimal places. Use the rounded value in the
subsequent computation. (Express as a decimal-based amount rather
than a whole percentage.) Round the amount of revenue to the
nearest dollar.
