    The amount of sales that will be necessary to earn the desired profit is 16000 units

    Explanation:

    To get the amount of sales to earn $10000, we make the following equation.

    Profit = Sales - variable cost-fixed cost

    Profit=10000

    Sales=$5.00x

    Variable cost = $2.50x

    Fixed cost=$30,000

    Replacing,

    10000=5x-2.5x-30000

    10000+30000=2.5x

    x=40000/2.5

    x=16000
