Net Income in %

0.3083 or 30.83%

3. Breakeven point in Units:

Breakeven point in units = Fixed costs / Contribution margin per unit

Fixed costs = $25,000 + $25,000 + $35,000 + $45,000 + $75,000

Fixed cost = $205,000

Contribution Margin per unit = Contribution / Estimated no of units sold

Contribution Margin per unit = $390,000 / 20,000 units

Contribution Margin per unit = $19.5 per unit

Breakeven point in units = $205,000 + $19.5 per unit

Breakeven point in units = 10,513 units
