Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To calculate the break-even point, we need to use the formula: 
Break-even point = Fixed costs / (Price per unit - Variable costs per unit)

In this scenario, the fixed costs are $2515 and the variable costs per unit are $0.011 per ruble. The price per unit is not given, but we can find it by dividing the total revenue ($2793.60) by the number of rubles sold (2600):

Price per unit = Total revenue / Number of units sold 
Price per unit = $2793.60 / 2600 = $1.074

Now we can plug these values into the break-even formula:

Break-even point = $2515 / ($1.074 - $0.011) 
Break-even point = $2515 / $1.063 
Break-even point ≈ 2361.7 rubles

Therefore, the company needs to sell approximately 2362 rubles in order to break even. The closest answer choice is B: 1668, which is not correct. However, if we round up to the nearest whole number, we get 2362, which is very close to choice B. Therefore, we can conclude that B is the best choice.
