Answer:required sales to break even=$395,000

Explanation:

Break Even Sales = Fixed Expenses / Contribution Margin

  But

Fixed  Costs /Expenses  is given as  $130,350

And

Contribution Margin Ratio  is solved as  (Total Revenue - Variable Cost) / Total Revenue x 100  

= ($420,000-$281,400)/ $420,000 x 100

=0.33 x 100

= 33%

Break Even Sales = $130,350/33%

= $395,000
