Explanation / Answer

(a) Number of units sold in 2013 = 13,000 Units

210,000 = ($150-$90)x - $570,000

$780,000 = 60x

x = 13,000 Units

(b) Number of units that would have to be sold in 2014 to reach the stockholders' desired profit level = 13,867 Units

$210,000 + $52,000 = ($150-$90)x - $570,000

$832,000 = 60x

x = 13,867 Units

c. Selling price have to be in order to reach the stockholders' desired profit level = $154.00

$210,000 + $52,000 = (x-$90)(13,000) - $570,000

$262,000 = 13,000x - $1,170,000 - $570,000

$2,002,000 = 13000x

x = $154.00
