Required:
1. Compute the company’s break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales.

3. At present, the company is selling 10,000 stoves per month. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price would result in a 25% increase in monthly sales of stoves. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one under present operating conditions, and one as operations would appear after the proposed changes.
4. Refer to the data in (3) above. How many stoves would have to be sold at the new selling price to yield a minimum net operating income of $75,000 per month? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
