1. (-/1 Points] DETAILS MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE ANOTHER This question has several parts that must be completed sequentially. If you skip a part of the question, you will not receive any points for the skipped part, and you will not be able to come back to the skipped part. . Tutorial Exercise Eastman Publishing Company is considering publishing an electronic textbook about spreadsheet applications for business. The fixed cost of manuscript preparation, textbook design, and web site construction is estimated to be $158,000. Variable processing costs are estimated to be $8 per book. The publisher plans to sell single-user access to the book for $44. (a) Build a spreadsheet model to calculate the profit/loss for a given demand. What profit (in dollars) can be anticipated with a demand of 3,700 copies? (b) Use a data table to vary demand from 1,000 to 6,000 in increments of 200 to assess the sensitivity of profit demand (c) Use Goal Seek to determine the access price per copy (in dollars) that the publisher must charge to break even with a demand of 3,700 copies. (d) Consider the following scenarios. Scenario 1 Scenario 2 Scenario 3 Scenario 4 Scenario 5 Variable Cost/Book / $7 $9 $13 S11 $12 Access Price $47 $51 $41 S51 $61 Demand 5,000 2,500 1,000 2,000 6,000 For each of these scenarios, the fixed cost remains $158,000. Use Scenario Manager to generate a summary report that gives the profit for each of these scenarios. Which scenario yields the highest profit? Which scenario yields the lowest profit? 1.
