Break-Even in Units, After-Tax Target Income, CVP Assumptions Campbell Company manufactures and sells adjustable canopies that attach to motor homes and trailers. The market covers both new unit purchases as well as replacement canopies. Campbell developed its business plan for the year based on the assumption that canopies would sell at a price of $400 each. The variable costs for each canopy we projected at $200, and the annual fixed costs were budgeted at $120,000. Campbell's after-tax profit objective was $231,000; the company's effective tax rate is 40 percent. While Campbell's sales usually rise during the second quarter, the May financial statements reported that sales were not meeting expectations. For the first five months of the year, only 350 units had been sold at the established price, with variable costs as planned, and it was clear that the after-tax profit projection for the year would not be reache unless some actions were taken.

The sales organization forecasts that with the significantly reduced sales price, 2,800 units can be sold during the remainder of the year. Tot fixed and variable unit costs will stay as budgeted. C. Cut fixed costs by $10,000, and lower the sales price by 5 percent. Variable costs per unit will be unchanged. Sales of 2,000 units are expected for the remainder of the yea Required: 1.
