Explanation / Answer

Ans;

As the Daniels has already invested $300,000 in the software it is sunk cost and sunk cost is not relevant in decision making.

If Daniels Markets the product as it is then his revenue will be $40000*12= $480,000

If Daniels decided to develop further then he will have to incur the cost of $150,000 where as his revenue would be 15*$49000= $735,000

So the Net Revenue would be $735,000-$150,000

=585,000

So considering this Daniels should develop it furhter.
