    the break-even output is 5,000 units

    Explanation:

    Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost = $15,000 + number of units * $3

    Sales = number of units * price = number of unit * $5

    Break-even output is number of output which generate sales equals to total cost

    Sales = Total cost

    ⇔ number of unit * $5 = $15,000 + number of units * $3

    ⇔ number of unit * (5-3) = 15,000

    ⇒ number of unit = 15000/3 = 5,000
