Expert Solution
Step 1

Option D Or $26250

Contribution $35000
Less : Fixed Cost  $8750
Net Income $26250

Calculation of Contribution per Unit :-

Total Units sold 5000 units

Margin of safety units are 3750 

Therefore Break even Sales Units are 1250  (5000 - 3750) units. 

Break even Sales in Dollar
