hello,

d)         The sales manager is convinced that, by increasing the quality of the ingredients (increasing variable costs to $0.30) and by advertising the increased quality (advertising dollars would be increased by $100,000), sales volume could be doubled.  He has also indicated that a price increase would not affect the ability to double sales volume as long as the price increase is not more than 20% of the current selling price. Compute the selling price that would be needed to achieve the goal of increasing operating income by 50%.  Is the sales manager’s plan feasible? What selling price would you choose? Why?
