Suppose a researcher is analyzing the economic efficiency of two different production techniques, A and B, in a manufacturing industry. Technique A has a fixed cost of $10,000 and variable costs of $5 per unit, while technique B has a fixed cost of $15,000 and variable costs of $3 per unit. The market price per unit of the product is $20. Calculate the breakeven point in terms of units for each technique, and determine which technique is more efficient in terms of lower breakeven sales.
