    = 7,954.5 units

    Explanation:

    Units to be sold to achieve target profit can be determined using the formula below

    Units to be sold to achieve target

    = Total fixed costs for the period + Target profit/contribution per unit

    Contribution per unit = Selling price - variable cost

    Profit to be sold to earn a profit of $35,000 will be determined as follows:

    Units to be sold

    Contribution per unit = $400 - $225 = 175

    = Total fixed costs for the period + Target profit/contribution per unit

    = (52,500 + 35,000) / 175

    = 7,954.5 units
