Belts Unlimited Company operates a small factory in which it manufactures two products: C and D. Production and sales results for last year were as follows.

		C	D
Units sold		9,100		19,200
Selling price per unit		$96		$75
Variable cost per unit		49		39
Fixed cost per unit		22		22

For purposes of simplicity, the firm averages total fixed costs over the total number of units of C and D produced and sold. The research department has developed a new product (E) as a replacement for product D. Market studies show that Belts Unlimited could sell 11,600 units of E next year at a price of $116; the variable cost per unit of E is $43. The introduction of product E will lead to a 11% increase in demand for product C and discontinuation of product D. If the company does not introduce the new product, it expects next years results to be the same as last years. Compute company profit with products C & D and with products C & E.
