A company recently approached Slugger's management about buying 200 units of product. Slugger currently sells its product to dealers for $2,600 per unit. Capacity is sufficient to produce the extra 200 units. No selling expenses would be incurred on the
special order. What is the minimum price Slugger should charge just to break even on the special order?
