Alternative 1: Decrease Selling Price
Market research estimates that monthly volume could
increase to 3,500 units, which is well within hoist
production capacity limitations, if the price were cut
from $4,350 to $3,850 per unit. Assuming the cost

taken? What would be the impact on monthly sales,
costs, and income?
