Answer:

$73 = unitary variable cost

Explanation:

To calculate the unitary variable cost that will yield the break-even point, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

50,000= 100,000 / (75 - unitary variable cost)

3,750,000 - 50,000unitary variable cost= 100,000

3,650,000 = 50,000unitary variable cost

$73 = unitary variable cost
