Answer:

200 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The total income must be at least equal to the costs, and that is:

10*U = 5*U + 1000   Solving for U, which is the amount of units sold per month:

U = 1000/5 = 200 units.

Answer:

To break even, the manufacturer must produce 200 units each month

Step-by-step explanation:

To break even, the amount of total cost must be the same as the amount of revenues.  

Total Cost is Fixed cost plus unitary variable cost multiplied by the produce quantity.  

Total cost= FC + vc*Q

Where ,

FC=Fixed cost

vc=unitary variable cos

Q=produce quantity

Revenue= Price * Q

Break even FC + vc*Q=Price * Q

Isolating Q

FC=(Price * Q)-(vc*Q)

FC=(Price-vc) * Q

Q= FC/(Price-vc)

Q= $1000/($10-$5)

Q= $1000/$5

Q=  200 units
