4. Assume that the operating results for last year were: Sales $ 2,080,000 Variable expenses 1,040,000 Contribution margin 1,040,000 Fixed expenses 180,000 Net operating income

b.	The president expects sales to increase by 20% next year. By what percentage should net operating income increase? (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final percentage answer to 2 decimal places, i.e. 22.47%)

5.	Refer to the original data. Assume that the company sold 37,500 units last year. The sales manager is convinced that a 13% reduction in the selling price, combined with a $70,000 increase in advertising, would increase annual unit sales by 50%.

Prepare two contribution format income statements, one showing the results of last years operations and one showing the results of operations if these changes are made. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your "Per unit" answers to 2 decimal places.)
