Answer:

$2,685,000

Explanation:

Sales = $7,500,000 ÷ $62.50

         = 120,000 units

Contribution = Sales - Variable cost

                     = $7,500,000 - (120,000 × $38)

                     = $7,500,000 - $45,60,000

                     = $29,40,000

Net income (after taxes) = $165,750

Net income before taxes and interest:

= Net income (after taxes) × (100 ÷ 65)

= $165,750 × (100 ÷ 65)

= 255,000

Therefore,

EBIT = Contribution - Fixed cost

255,000 =  $29,40,000 - Fixed cost

Fixed cost  = $29,40,000 - 255,000

                  = $2,685,000
