Answer:

  1125

Step-by-step explanation:

The "contribution margin" of each product is 80% of its unit price, or $5.60. In order to break even, the total contribution margin must match the fixed costs.

  $5.60n = $6300

  n = 6300/5.6 = 1125

The company should sell 1125 units per month to break even.
