#### Explanation:

Total selling income = manufacturing cost

Before we begin; notice we have a mixture of units. Cents and dollars. Consequently we need to express these using just one unit of measurement. I choose dollars.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let the count of bars be $n$

Total selling income =nxx$0.60 ->$(0.60n)

Production cost =$1000+(nxx$0.10) -> $(0.1n+1000) Setting one against the other for break even point. Dropping the dollar sign as we will just end up with a count (n) $0.1 n + 1000 = 0.6 n$$0.6 n - 0.1 n = 1000$$0.5 n = 1000$$n = \frac{1000}{0.5} = 2000$$\textcolor{b l u e}{\text{Check}}$$0.6xx2000 = $1200 ($0.1xx2000)+$1000 =$1200

Produce of $2000$ Candy bars is the break even point.

#### Explanation:

Break-even point is the number of units $N$ produced and sold

which make zero profit.

Revenue earned , R=P*N; P=$0.6 is unit price. P*N – (V * N + F) = 0 ; V=$0.1,F=$1000 ; V and F are additional cost per unit and fixed cost respectively. P*N – (V * N + F) = 0 or N(P-V)=F:. N= F/(P-V) So, break-even point is $N = \frac{F}{P - V} = \frac{1000}{0.6 - 0.1} = 2000\$ Candy bars. [Ans]
