Sail Safe currently sells motor boats for $60,000. It has costs of $46,500. A competitor is bringing a new motor boat to the market that will sell for $55,000. Management believes it must lower the price to $55,000 to compete in the market for motor boats. The marketing department believes that the new price will cause sales to increase by 12.5%, even with a new competitor in the market. Sail Safe's sales are currently 2,000 motor boats per year. 3
