Answer:
5,000
Explanation:
Variable cost per unit = $250
Sales price would be set at twice the VC/unit
Therefore, Sales price = 2 × $250
= $500
Fixed costs = $750,000
If operating income of $500,000 or more is expected
Let the sales volume be y, then
500y - 750,000 - 250y = 500,00
250y = 750,000 + 500,000
250y = 1,250,000
y = 1,250,000/250
y = 5,000
Minimum sales volume to have an operating income of $500,000 or more is 5,000.
