With fixed costs of 500 000 and that weighted contribution of 25, the break-even volume is

  • A.20 000 units in the stated mix
  • B.16 667 units in the stated mix
  • C.25 000 units in the stated mix
  • D.12 500 units in the stated mix

Answer: A

Correct answer: 20 000 units in the stated mix

Dividing the fixed cost by the weighted contribution,

\[ \frac{500\,000}{25} = 20\,000 \ \text{units} \]

that is 15,000 of the first product and 5000 of the second. The qualification matters: the answer holds only at the assumed three-to-one mix, and any shift towards the lower-margin product raises the figure.
