Respuesta :

Answer:

$875,000

Explanation:

The computation of the break even point for earn the target profit is shown below:

Break even point = (Fixed costs + target profit) ÷ (Profit volume Ratio)  

where,  

Profit volume ratio = (Contribution margin per unit) ÷ (selling price per unit) × 100

So, the Profit volume ratio = ($24) ÷ ($60) × 100 = 40%

So, the value would equal to  

= ($250,000 + $100,000) ÷ (40%)  

= $875,000
