Blissful Blankets' target profit is $520,000. Each blanket has a contribution margin of $21. Fixed costs are $320,000. The number of blankets that must be sold to achieve the target profit is _________.

Reason: ($520,000 + $320,000) ÷ $21 = 40,000

Raw materials inventory was $27,000 at the beginning of the year and $25,000 at the end of the year.
