Its Five Oclock Somewhere, LLC manufactures beverage containers. The company is anxious to produce and sell a new beverage container designed to keep beverages cool for up to 2 hours. The container will sell for $3 each. Enough capacity exists in the companys plant to produce 14,000 of the new containers each month. $0.40 from every sales dollar is contribution margin. Fixed costs associated with the container would total $14,400 per month in the existing facility.

The companys Marketing Department predicts that if demand for the new container exceeds the 14,000 containers that the company is able to produce in its current facility that additional manufacturing space can be rented from another company at a fixed cost of $2,000 per month. The rented facility has a production capacity of 10,000 units per month. The variable cost percentage in the rented facility would equal 65% due to somewhat less efficient operations than in the companys current facility.

To make a monthly profit of $4,600, the company would need to produce and sell ____ containers.
