Owen Conner works part-time packaging software for a local distribution company in Indiana. The annual fixed cost is $15,000 for this process, direct labor is $3.75 per package, and material is $4.50 per package. The selling price will be $12.50 per package. a. What is the break-even point in units? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Roundup your answer to the next whole number.) b. How much revenue do we need to take in before breaking even? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount.)

Fixed cost(FC) = $15000
Variable cost(VC) = direct labor cost + material cost = $3.75+$4.50 = $8.25
Selling price(SP) = $12.50
a) Break even point in units = FC / (SP – VC)
= 15000 / (12.50 – 8.25)
= 15000/ 4.25
= 3529.41 or rounded to 3530 units
b) Break even Revenue = Break even in units x SP
= 3530 units x $12.50
= $44125

  4. Lazer Technologies Inc. (LTI) has produced a total of 20 high-power laser systems that could be used to destroy any approaching enemy missiles or aircraft. The 20 units have been produced, funded in part as private research within the research and development arm of LTI, but the bulk of the funding came from a contract with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). Testing of the laser units has shown that they are effective defense weapons, and through redesign to add portability and easier field maintenance, the units could be truck-mounted. DoD has asked LTI to submit a bid for 100 units. The 20 units that LTI has built so far cost the following amounts and are listed in the order in which they were produced: https://d2vlcm61l7u1fs.cloudfront.net/media%2Fdcd%2Fdcda4803-b0ee-4b7a-9b9f-517a17de01bc%2FphpGIWGKB.png a.
