Respuesta :

Answer:

option (B) 25,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Fixed cost = $500,000 per year

Cost of wood and labor to manufacture one bat = $5

Selling price of the bat = $25

Now,

At breakeven, total cost equals to the total revenue

let the breakeven quantity be 'x'

thus,

$500,000 + $5x = $25x

or

$25x - $5x = $500,000

or

$20x = $500,000

or

x = 25,000

Hence,

the correct answer is option (B) 25,000
