Answer:

Break-even point in units= 348

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The fixed cost for the production will be $24,000. The variable cost will be $31 per pair of shoes. The shoes will sell for $100 for each pair.

To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 24,000 / (100 - 31)

Break-even point in units= 347.82 = 348
