Explanation / Answer

Annual fixed costs = 44000*12= $528000 1 Annual breakeven point in units = 528000/(20-11)= 58667 Breakeven point in dollars = 58667*20= $1173340 2 Units to be sold = (528000+23000)/(20-11)= 61222 3 Operating income = 17800/(1-0.27)= $24384 4 Units to be sold = (528000+24384)/(20-11)= 61376
