In our second assumption, instead of using the cost of goods per cases in 1986, we try to use the percentage it counts in the total expenses which is 50.4% and to find the sales needed to break-even. The detail of the calculation is shown in the answer for questions d. The result is that 95,635, a little bit higher than the estimated sales of 90,000.

The sales budget is prepared by multiplying the expected unit sales volume for each product by its anticipated unit-selling price. As reflected in Exhibit A noted below and included in the overall Peyton Approved budget worksheet included in Appendix A, Peyton Approved expects sales volume to be 18000, 22000 and 20000 units in the month of July, August and September respectively. The budgeted sales in August exceeded July's sales units by 4000 units, however, sales declined in September by 2000 units from August.

Now that the initial startup phase of our company is complete, our team of Analysts has determined what we have deemed reasonable costs, considering that our definition of “reasonable” aligns with yours. In order to defend our stance on what we feel is reasonable, we have considered the nature of costs, such as air travel for business meetings and the use of our high quality materials, by researching the market for affordable, high-quality materials and have put standards in place to keep air travel valid for these government contracts. With the understanding that although the nature of the cost may be considered acceptable, the amount of the cost may not meet standards when it comes to costs defined as “reasonable” (Murphy, John Edward; Guide to Contract Pricing, pg. 47). With this in mind, we continue to research the market to find adequate material at a much lower cost. We have used this data to create what we feel is a cost that would not and should not exceed what any prudent person would pay in a competitive business environment. We are aware of the competition and have made it a strong incentive of ours to save on costs for the items that we are providing to you. Allowability of our costs is guided by the 52 generally applicable cost principles that are based on specific laws and policies (Murphy, John Edward; Guide to Contract
