Answer:

increase

Explanation:

Break-even point is used to determine the minimum number of units a business needs to sell in order to fully cover the fixed costs. The break-even  formula is below;

Break-even = Fixed cost / (Sale price - Variable cost)

If sales price (SP) decreases while keeping other factors; variable cost(VC) and fixed cost(FC) constant, the denominator amount will be smaller, making the break- even point to increase.
