I think the answer is around 15,000 units, but I’m torn between options C and D. I should double-check my calculations.

This reminds me of a similar practice question where we had to find the break-even point. I wonder if the same method applies here.

This seems like a standard problem that we've practiced in class. I think I can use the profit equation and work backwards to find the required number of units.
