Ray Bond sells handcrafted yard decorations at county fairs. The variable cost to make these is $20 each, and he sells them for $50. The cost to rent a booth at the fair is $150. How many of these must Ray sell to break even

Respuesta :

Answer:

5 units

Explanation:

Breakeven point is the point or number of units sold that makes the cost equal with the revenue generated. In other words, it is the point in which the profit or loss made by an entity is 0.

Given;

Variable cost per unit = $20

Selling price per unit = $50

Fixed cost =  cost of rent = $150

Let the number of units to be sold be c

Total revenue = 50c

total cost = 20c + 150

To break even, total revenue =  total cost

20c + 150 = 50c

50c - 20c = 150

30c = 150

c = 5

Ray must sell 5 units to break even.
