Answer:

The break-even point in units for ordinary laptops is 2,100 units.

Explanation:

Contribution Margin per unit (ordinary) = Selling Price - Variable cost

= $650 -$605

= $45

Contribution Margin per unit (premium) = Selling Price - Variable cost = $1,150 -$1,090

= $60

$45* 4x + $60x = Fixed Costs = $126,000

= 180x +60x = $126,000

=240x =$126,000 = 525 units

Ordinary computers = 4x

= 4*525

= 2,100 units

Therefore, The break-even point in units for ordinary laptops is 2,100 units.
