Question

Green Woods sells specialty equipment for mountain climbers. Its sales for last year included $238,000 of tents and $411,000 of climbing gear. For next year, management has decided to sell specialty sleeping bags also. As a result of this change, sales projections for next year are $264,000 of tents, $426,000 of climbing gear, and $51,000 of sleeping bags. How much of next year's sales are derived from the side effects of adding the new product to its sales offerings?

A. $0

B. $20,500

C. $41,000

D. $51,000

E. $82,000

Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Last year sales = 238000 + 411000

= 649000

Next year sales = 264000 + 426000 + 51000

= 741000

Effect = 741000-649000

= $ 92000

Answer should be 92000 which is not there in any of the options.
