Petrox Oil Co. is considering a project that will have fixed costs of $15,000,000. The product will be sold for $41.50 per unit, and will incur a variable cost of $12.80 per unit.

In fact, she believes that the firm will be able to sell only about 150,000 units. However, she also thinks the demand for Petrox Oil Co.'s product is relatively inelastic, so the firm can increase the sale price. Assuming that the firm can sell 150,000 units, what price must it set to meet the CFO's EBIT goal of $20,000,000? O $246.1:3 $307.66 O $283.05 O $258.44 What affects the firm's operating break-even point? Several factors affect a firm's operating break-even point.
