Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
The break-even point (BEP) or break-even level represents the sales amount—in either unit (quantity) or revenue (sales) terms—that is required to cover total costs, consisting of both fixed and variable costs to the company.
Total profit at the break-even point is zero.
