Bonita Industries sells radios for $50 per unit. The fixed costs are $645000 and the variable costs are 60% of the selling price. As a result of new automated equipment, it is anticipated that fixed costs will increase by $215000 and variable costs will be 50% of the selling price. The new break-even point in units is:

The new break even point in units = 34400 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Fixed cost ( F ) = $ 645000

Selling price ( s )= $ 50

Variable Cost ( v ) = × 50 = 30

Break Even Quantity ( ) =

⇒ =

⇒ =

⇒ = 32250 units

Now the new fixed cost ( ) = $ 645000 + $ 215000 = $ 860000

Selling price ( s )= $ 50

Variable Cost ( v ) = × 50 = $ 25

Break Even Quantity ( ) =

⇒ =

⇒ = 34400 units

Therefore, The new break even point in units = 34400 units

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
