Answer:Break-even point (units)= 4,090units  ,  

a. Product Q -2,045 units

b. Product Z -2,045 units

Explanation:

Given

Product Selling Price Variable Cost per Unit Contribution Margin per Unit Q                   $320                       $150                             $170

Z                    220                          180                                 40

Using the formulae

Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin

But weighted Q contribution: $170 x 50%  = $ 85

weighted Z contribution:     $ 40 x 50%  = $  20

Total Mix contribution(Weighted average contribution margin)=$105

Break-even point (units)= $429,450/ $105

Break-even point (units)= 4,090units

Now, for each product:

Q= 4,090units x 50%= 2,045 units  

Z= 4,090units x 50%= 2,045 units

Therefore,

a. Product Q -2,045 units

b. Product Z -2,045 units
