Analyze Pacific Airways Pacific Airways provides air travel services between Los Angeles and Seattle. Cost information per flight is as follows: Each flight has a capacity of 150 seats, with an average of 125 seats sold per flight at an average ticket price of 180.

Determine the contribution margin per passenger for the full-priced ticket. b. Determine the break-even number of seats sold per flight. c. Determine the contribution margin per passenger for discounted tickets. d. Should Pacific Airways offer the discounted ticket plan? Answer the question by computing the incremental contribution margin per flight for the plan.
Deuce Sporting Goods manufactures a high-end model tennis racket. The company’s forecasted income statement for the year, before any special orders, is as follows: Fixed costs included in the forecasted income statement are $400,000 in manufacturing cost of goods sold and $200,000 in selling expenses. A new client placed a special order with Deuce, offering to buy 1,000 tennis rackets for $100.00 each. The company will incur no additional selling expenses if it accepts the special order. Assuming that Deuce has sufficient capacity to manufacture 1,000 more tennis rackets, by what amount would differential income increase (decrease) as a result of accepting the special order? (Hint: First compute the variable cost per unit relevant to this decision.)
