Solution and Explanation:

 Breakeven point = Fixed cost divide by Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Sales minus Variable cost.

Fixed cost

Particular           Amount

Salaries                  $5000

Utilities                   $1100

Depreciation   $1200

Maintenance   $780

Total Fixed cost = $8,080.

Variable cost =Maid services plus Other cost = $7 plus $13 = $20

Contribution = $40 minus $20 = $20.

Breakeven point in number = $8080 divide 20 = 404 rented rooms per month.

Breakeven point in $ = Breakeven point rented rooms × rent cost.

=> 404 rooms multiply $40 = $16,160.
