    The break even price is $215.45

    Explanation:

    Break even Price = [ (Profit as per existing policy / Units under new policy) + Cost] * (1 + Required Return)

    = ({ [ (Selling Price - Cost) * Units sold under under existing policy] / Units under new policy} + Cost) * (1 + Required Return)

    = ({ [ ($210 - $158) * 1530] / 1570 } + 163) * (1 + 0.83%)

    = ({ [ 52 * 1530] / 1570} + 163) * (1.0083)

    = ([79560 / 1570] + 163) * 1.0083

    = [ 50.68 + 163] * 1.0083

    = 213.68 * 1.0083

    = 215.45
