Problem 2: Compute the regular break-even point stated in terms of revenue dollars for 2019. (Note: Do not calculate the break-even point in units).

Problem 3: Management is planning for an improvement in profitability for 2020, they would like to earn a total profit of $200,000 in 2020.

It is also expected that company salaries cost will be reduced by $75,000 in 2020. In light of these changes, if selling prices remain unchanged, how many units must be sold in order for LAMBTON LTD. to earn its desired profit level for 2020? (Hint: the profit break-even point)
