APQ Company currently sells a piece of equipment for $150 per unit. It plans on lowering the price of the unit to $119 per unit. The cost of goods for each unit is consistent each year, at $52 per unit. The company expects to sell 100,000 units in the current year. Suppose that if APQ drops the price on the equipment immediately, it can increase sales over the next year by 30% to 130,000 units. Will this price decrease have a positive or negative impact on the company's EBIT? What will be the dollar value of the incremental impact of this price drop on the firm's EBIT? Will this have a positive or negative impact on the EBIT for the company? What will the dollar value of the incremental impact of the price drop be for the company? (Enter a negative for a loss, positive for a gain; round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

2. A company is uncertain how many units of a new product can be sold each year. To determine its sensitivity to varying annual sales volumes, cost estimates for manufacturing the product were found to be as follows: Direct materials P3.75 per unit Direct labor =P11.50 per unit Overhead = P25,620+P3.25 per unit In addition, new equipment costing P165,000 will be needed. It is expected that it would be used for 10 years with a salvage value of P25,000 at the end of that time. A market study indicates that the product will sell P28.00 per unit. If money is worth 12% to the company before taxes, determine the rate of return for annual sales volume of a.) 4,500 units b.) 5,700 units c.) 8,200 units. d.) 9,600 units
