You assume that in the worst-case scenario the sales volume is only 700,000 units.
What is the sensitivity of the project’s Net Present Valu to changes in sales volume?
Give the answer in dollars per unit, rounding the final result to the nearest dollar, with no decimal places (e.g., if the answer would be $70.34 per unit, give 70; or if the answer would be $79.58 per unit, give 80).
