Respuesta :

Answer: $93.86

Explanation:

The break even price simply refers to the price that's required to make a normal profit. From the information given, the break even price will be:

= [($93-$44) × 2675)/2750) + 44] × ( 1 + 2.3%)

= [$49 × 2675)/2750)+44] × (1+0.024)

= [(49 × 2675)/2750)+44] × 1.024

= [(131075/2750) + 44] × 1.024

= (47.66 + 44) × 1.024

= 91.66 × 1.024

= $93.86

Therefore, the break even price is $93.86
