Julian Pharma manufactures hospital beds. Its most popular model, Deluxe, sells for $5,000. It has variable costs totaling $2,650 and fixed costs of $1,200 per unit, based on an average production run of 5,000 units. It normally has four production runs a year, with $400,000 in setup costs each time. Plant capacity can handle up to six runs a year for a total of 30,000 beds.

A competitor is introducing a new hospital bed similar to Deluxe that will sell for $3,800. Management believes it must lower the price to compete.

The company currently sells all the Deluxe beds it can produce.

b.What is the annual operating income from Deluxe if the price is reduced to $3,800 and sales in 
units increase by 25%?
