"FIRED-UP" produce specialist fireworks which they sell at R 300 per box. Their fixed costs are R 20 000 and the variable cost of a box of a fireworks is R 50. What is their break-even production level?

We help with homework, but we won't do it for you. Post your attempt and then someone will come along to help you.

Here is your formula:
PX = VX + FC

P = Unit Selling Price
V = Unit Variable Price
FC = Fixed Costs
X = Sales in Units

Just plug in your numbers and solve for X.

Thanks
Pready !

your formula, helped me.

PX = VX + FC

P = Unit Selling Price
V = Unit Variable Price
FC = Fixed Costs
X = Sales in Units
solution
300x = 20000 + 50x
300x - 50x = 20000
250x = 20000(divide 250 both sides to get x)
x = 80
well done !
