I'm not too sure about this one. The break-even point is 40,000 units, but the question is asking for the budgeted profit. I'm going to have to think this through a bit more.

Hmm, I'm going to go with option B. 24,000 seems like the right answer since the margin of safety is 20% and the contribution per unit is 3.

I'm not sure. Can someone explain how the margin of safety affects the budgeted profit?

I agree with Vonda. The margin of safety is 20%, so the budgeted profit should be 20% of the break-even point.
