Profit Units Dc9951
1. **Problem:** A company produces product X at a unit cost of 10. Fixed costs are 450000, and each unit sells for 25. How many units must be sold to make a positive profit of 510000?
2. **Formula and explanation:**
Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost
Total Revenue = Selling Price per unit \( \times \) Number of units sold \(x\)
Total Cost = Fixed Cost + (Unit Cost \( \times \) Number of units sold)
We want profit to be 510000, so:
$$\text{Profit} = 25x - (450000 + 10x) = 510000$$
3. **Solve for \(x\):**
$$25x - 450000 - 10x = 510000$$
$$15x - 450000 = 510000$$
$$15x = 510000 + 450000$$
$$15x = 960000$$
$$x = \frac{960000}{15} = 64000$$
4. **Interpretation:**
The company must sell more than 64000 units to make a positive profit of 510000.
---
**Final answer:** The company must sell at least **64000** units to achieve the desired profit.
