Answer :

See below

Explanation:

Given the above information, break even point in dollars is calculated as seen below

Break even point in dollars = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

Where

Fixed cost = $6,000

Contribution margin ratio = Contribution margin / Sales

Contribution margin ratio = ($2 - $0.3) / $2

Contribution margin ratio = 85%

Therefore,

Break even point in dollars = $6,000 / 85%

Break even point in dollars = $7,059
