Aldo Redondo drives his own car on company business. His employer reimburses him for such travel at the rate of 36 cents per mile. Aldo estimates that his fixed costs per year such as taxes, insurance, and depreciation are $2,200. The direct or variable costs such as gas, oil, and maintenance average about 14.4 cents per mile.
How many miles must he drive to break even? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Roundup your answer to the next whole number.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

10,185 miles

Explanation:

The computation of the break even miles is shown below:

As we know that

Break even units is

= (Fixed cost) ÷ (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit)

= ($2,200) ÷ (36 cents per mile - 14.4 cents per mie)

= $2,200 ÷ 21.6 cents per mile

= $2,200 ÷ 0.216

= 10,185 miles

We simply applied the above formula so that the break even point in units could come and the same is to be considered
