Hi, how do i solve #3?

Imagine that you are planning to open a nachos (a Mexican cuisine) place in the
Forks Commons in Winnipeg. The average price customers are willing to pay for 1
bowl of nachos is $10.
Fixed cost (FC) is $5,000 per month (store rent, interest on bank loan, and other
fixed expenses). Unit Variable Cost (UVC) is $5 (chips, toppings, and labor).
(1) You wish to estimate how many nacho bowls you need to sell to cover fixed cost
at $10 per bowl (in other words, to reach break-even point) (10 points)
(2) Based on your marketing research, you estimate that approximately 900 bowls of
nacho can be sold per month at $10/bowl. If Fixed Cost and Unit Variable Cost
(UVC) remain as planned, will you make a profit or loss each month? How much is
the profit or loss? (15 points)
(3) If Fixed Cost and Unit Variable Cost (UVC) remain as planned, if you want to get
$1,300 profit at 900 bowls sold per month (based on market research report in (2)),
how much do you need to sell each bowl of nachos for? (10 points)
