PRODUCTION PROCESS Total fixed costs Variable cost per unit Alpha Omega $2 million $100 $3 million $80 The selling price per unit regardless of the production process will be $200. Capacity for both production processes is 150,000 units. Required: a Compute the break-even point in units for both production processes. b At what level of sales (units) will profits be identical for the two production processes? If sales are unlikely to be less than 65,000 units, which production process should management select?
