Number of units produced and sold 500,000 units

Selling price ?

Operating income $195,000

Total investment in assets $2,000,000

Fixed costs for the year $3,000,000

Required

2.The new CEO has a plan to reduce fixed costs by $200,000 and variable costs by $0.60 per unit while continuing to produce and sell 500,000 units. Using the same markup percentage as in requirement 1, calculate the new selling price.
