Tiktok Company distributes a lightweight lawn chair that sell for P150 per unit. Variable costs are P60 per unit, and fixed costs total P1,800,000 annually. Assume the company sold 28,000 units last year. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in selling price, combined with a P700,000 increase in advertising expenditures, would cause annual sales in units to increase by 50%.
REQUIRED:
1. Prepare two contribution margin income statements, one showing the results of last year's operations and one showing what the results of operations would be if these changes were made.
2. Would you recommend that the company do as the sales manager suggests? Why?
