. (Enter your answer as a whole number.)

Answer 1

To calculate the total sales dollars needed to reach the target profit, we can use the formula:

\[
\text{Total Sales} = \text{Number of Units} \times \text{Selling Price per Unit}
\]

Given:

- Number of units = 90,000
- Selling price per unit = $7.50

Now, let's substitute the values into the formula:

\[
\text{Total Sales} = 90,000 \times 7.50
\]

Calculating that:

\[
\text{Total Sales} = 675,000
\]

Therefore, the total sales dollars needed to reach the target profit is **$675,000**.
