After how many months will the company reach the break-even point?
A . 8
B . 12
C . 14
D . 16

Answer: D

Explanation:

Hardware, software, and deployment cost: 580.000

Existing hardware decommission cost: 60.000

Total Cost of Ownership: 580.000 + 60.000 = 640.000

Gain/month = $40.000

Total gain from investment in a year = $480,000

Break Point = 640.000 / 40.000 = 16 months
