To determine the specific range of units sold for which the company shows a profit, we typically need more information, such as the fixed costs, variable costs per unit, and the selling price per unit.
However, given that the company must sell 3,000 units to earn the maximum profit, we can infer that there is a certain break-even point (the minimum number of units that must be sold to cover costs) and that profits will increase until reaching 3,000 units, after which they may decrease if sales go beyond a certain point due to additional costs, production limits, or market saturation.
To determine the specific range of units sold that results in profit, you would generally consider:
1. **Break-even Point:** Calculate the break-even point, which is where total revenue equals total costs (fixed and variable).
2. **Profit Range:** Identify the range of units sold above the break-even point up to 3,000 units.
If you have specific numbers for fixed costs and variable costs, or any other information related to your product, please provide that, and I can assist you further with calculating the break-even point and profit ranges. Otherwise, I can guide you through how to set it up using hypothetical numbers.
