$1.40
Explanation:
Per cent change in price = ($2.02– $1.85)/$1.85 = +9%
Per cent change in demand = (1000 – 850)/1000 = –15%
The elasticity is = ln(1 + per cent change in quantity sold)/ln(1 + per cent change in price)
= ln(1 – 0.15)/ln(1 + 0.09)
= –0.16252/0.08618
= –1.886
Variable cost = $660/1000
Profit-maximising price = [–1.886/(–1.886+1)]*$0.66 = $1.40

Explanation:
a) To calculate the break-even point in units, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 75,000 / 4
Break-even point in units= 18,750
b)To calculate the break-even point in dollars, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 75,000 / (4/10)
Break-even point (dollars)= $187,500
c) Desired profit= $40,000
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (75,000 + 40,000) / 4
Break-even point in units= 28,750
d) Desired profit= $35,000
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= (75,000 + 35,000) / 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= $275,000
e) Desired profit (before taxes)= 25,000/0.7= $35,714
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 110,714/4
Break-even point in units= 27,679
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 110,714/0.4
Break-even point (dollars)=$276,785
