Explanation:

Given:

If we sell pizzas for $11.99 and our business' variable costs are 60% of the selling price, and we have fixed costs of $21,000 each month.

Now, to find pizzas to sell to breakeven.

Fixed costs = $21,000.

Sale price = $11.99.

Variable costs:

Breakeven = Fixed Costs ÷ (Sale price – Variable costs )

Therefore, 4375 pizzas have to sell to breakeven.
