MFG Manufacturing sells a product for $40 per unit. The production cost of the product is $21 per unit: direct materials of $8, direct labor of $7, variable overhead of $4 and fixed overhead of $2. The fixed overhead per unit comes from dividing $500,000 of fixed factory overhead by 250,000 units produced. In addition, MFG pays $3 for shipping each unit sold.

    Break-even sales = $800,000

    Explanation:

    The break-even sales is the amount of revenue that a business must generate that would equate its total costs to total revenue. At the break even sales, the contribution is exactly to total iced cost, and the business makes no profit or loss

    Break-even (units) = Total general fixed cost / (selling price - variable cost)

    Break-even sales = Break-even (in units) * Selling price

    Break-even sales = 20,000 * $40 = $800,000

    Break-even sales=$800,000
