1. AudioCables, Inc., is currently manufacturing an adapter that has a variable cost of $.50 per unit and a selling price of $1.00 per unit. Fixed costs are $14,000. Current sales volume is 30,000 units. The firm can substantially improve the product quality by adding a new piece of equipment at an additional fixed cost of $6,000. Variable costs would increase to $.60, but sales volume should jump to 50,000 units due to a higher-quality product. Should Audio Cables buy the new equipment? It is required to provide calculations to justify your answer.
