Question

Exercise 22-2 K] Your answer is incorrect. Try again. Eckert Company is involved in producing and selling high-end golf equipment. The company has recently been involved in developing various types of laser guns to measure yardages on the golf course. One small laser gun, called LittleLaser, appears to have a very large potential market. Because of competition, Eckert does not believe that it can charge more than $88 for LittleLaser. At this price, Eckert believes it can sell 117,000 of these laser guns. Eckert will require an investment of $11,700,000 to manufacture, and the company wants an ROI of 15%. Determine the target cost for one LittleLaser. (Round answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 10.) Target cost 15 LINK TO TEXT

Explanation / Answer

Calculate Target cost :

ROI = 11700000*15% = 1755000

Return per unit = 1755000/117000 = 15 per unit

Sale price per unit = 88 per unit

Target cost per unit = 88-15 = 73 per unit
