Currently, the unit selling price of a product is $125, the unit variable cost is $105, and the total fixed costs are $460,000. A proposal is being evaluated to increase the unit selling price to $130.

Break-even point= fixed costs/ contribution margin

A) Break-even point= 460,000/(125-105)= 23,000 units
