Question 52

Essay

Malone Company had sales in 2014 of $1600000 on 80000 units. Variable costs totaled $960000 and fixed costs totaled $400000.
A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 20% (or $2.40). However to process the new raw material fixed operating costs will increase by $40000. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 5% increase in the number of units sold.
