Shock Electronics sells portable heaters for $25 each unit, and the variable expenses to manufacture them is $17. Mr. Amps estimates that the fixed costs are $96,000.
a.) How do I compute the break-even point in units?

b.) How do I fill in the table below (in dollars) to illustrate that the break-even point has been achieved.

sales
fixed costs

net profit (loss)

Therapeutic Systems sells its products for $8 per unit. It has the following costs:
Rent $120,000
Factory labor $1.50 per unit
