Answer: Requitred units =34,285.7 units

Explanation:

GIVEN

                                     Total          Per Unit Sales

                                   $ 300,000   $ 10

Variable expenses   180,000       $6

Contribution margin 120,000       $ 4

Fixed expenses        100,000

Net operating income $ 20,000

New selling price=Old price - prosed price

=$10-$0.5  =  $9.5

Revised contribution margin=  Selling price-Variable costs

= $9.5-$6=$3.5

Proposed Contribution margin=Net operating income + Fixed expenses.

=(100,000 +20,000)= $120,000

Required units to be sold=Proposed Contribution margin/Contribution margin per unit

= $120,000/$3.5

=34,285.7 units
