Answer:

Part 1

9,000 units

Part 2

$1,575,000

Explanation:

Break even point is the level of activity where a company makes neither a profit nor a loss.

Break-even point in units = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit

                                          = $315,000 ÷ ($175 - $140)

                                          = 9,000 units

Break-even point in sales dollars = Fixed Costs  ÷ Contribution margin

                                                        = $315,000 ÷ ($35/$175)

                                                        = $1,575,000
