    955 unit

    Explanation:

    Data provided in the question:

    Selling price per unit = $670

    Variable cost per unit = $250

    Total fixed costs = $327,600

    Income tax rate = 35%

    After tax Desired profit = $47,775

    Now,

    Before tax profit = [ After tax Desired profit ] : [1 - Tax rate ]

    = $47,775 : [1 - 0.35 ]

    = $73,500

    Contribution required = Total fixed costs + Before tax profit

    = $327,600 + $73,500

    = $401,100

    Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

    = $670 - $250

    = $420

    Therefore,

    No of unit required to be sold

    = [ Contribution required ] : [Contribution margin per unit ]

    = $401,100 : 420

    = 955 unit
