What were unit sales for the company?


Sagot :

Answer: 7500

Explanation:

Let x be the number of units sales for the company.

Total sales = 300x   [ Sales price per unit x number of units]

total variable cost = 220x [ Variable cost per unit x number of units]

Total sales - Total variable cost - Total fixed cost = Net income

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 300x-220x-500000=100000\\\\\Rightarrow\ 80x= 600000\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{600000}{80}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=7500[/tex]

Hence, 7500 units sales for the company.
