A chocolate factory sells a box of chocolates for $14 each.
The total cost is a fixed overhead of $3600 per month plus production costs of $8 per box.
Find the break-even point.

At $14 per box, Total Revenue: . dollars.

The production cost per box is $8: . dollars, plus a fixed cost of
. . Total Cost: . dollars.


The break-even point occurs when Total Revenue equals Total Cost.
