Expert Solution

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

= $850 - $380

= $470

Break-even sales (in units) = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit

= $2,350,000 / $470

= 5,000 units.

Thus, 5,000 units must be produced and sold to achieve the breakeven.
