The company has annual fixed costs of $200,032. How many units must the company sell in order to break even each year. a given product has the following variable costs per unit: a. direct materials $100 b. Direct labor $50 c. variable selling costs $10 d. variable administrative costs $2 The units sell for $200 each.
Total annual fixed costs = $200,032
Variable direct materials cost per unit = $100
Variable direct labor cost per unit = $50
Variable selling costs per unit = $10
Variable administrative costs per unit = $2
Total variable cost per unit = 100 + 50 + 10 + 2 = $162
Selling price of each unit = $200
Break-even point = Total annual fixed costs / (Selling price of each unit - Total variable cost of each unit)
= 200032 / (200 - 162)
= 5264 units
Hence the break-even point is 5264 units.
