Burns Industries currently manufactures and sells 17,000 power saws per month, although it has the capacity to produce 32,000 units per month. At the 17,000-unit-per-month level of production, the per-unit cost is $59, consisting of $37 in variable costs and $22 in fixed costs. Burns sells its saws to retail stores for $77 each.
