Answer:

D. 24,000

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How many Standards would Roosevelt sell at the break-even point

First step

Total sales = 40000 + 60000

Total sales= 100000 units

Second step

Standard = 40000 / 100000

Standard= 0.4

Third step

Supreme = 60000 / 100000

Supreme= 0.6

Fourth step

Overall break even in units = 1800000 / 30

Overall break even in units= 60000 units

Now let calculate the Standards sales at break even point

Standards sales at break even point = 60000 *

0.4

Standards sales at break even point =24000 units

Therefore the Standards sales at break even point is 24000 units
