A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/11/M/J/23

Explanation
Break-even analysis requires fixed costs, but none are identifiable here
Steps:
- Identify variable costs per unit: direct material 4.20 + variable overhead per unit.
- Use high-low method for semi-variable overhead: variable rate = (2000) / (4000 - 2000 units) = $1 per unit.
- Calculate fixed overhead: 1 × 2000 units) = $0.
- Contribution per unit = 2.20 + 1) = 0 / $2.60 = 0 units.
Not enough information: No fixed costs are provided or derivable beyond the semi-variable overhead (which has $0 fixed component), so break-even output cannot be determined from the given data.
Final answer: Not enough information.
