[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Petro Motors Inc. (PMI) produces small gasoline-powered motors for use in lawn mowers. The company has been growing steadily over the past five years and is operating at full capacity. PMI recently completed the addition of new plant and equipment at a cost of $11,800,000, thereby increasing its manufacturing capacity to 140,000 motors annually. The addition to plant and equipment will be depreciated on a straight-line basis over 10 years. Sales of motors were 80,000 units prior to the completion of the additional capacity. Cost records indicated that manufacturing costs had totaled $80 per motor, of which $68 per motor was considered to be variable manufacturing costs. PMI has used the volume of activity at full capacity as the basis for applying fixed manufacturing overhead. The normal selling price is $120 per motor, and PMI pays a 5% commission on the sale of its motors. LawnPro.com offered to purchase 55,000 motors at a price of $80 per unit to test the viability of distributing lawn mower replacement motors through its website. PMI would be expected to produce the motors, store them in its warehouse, and ship individual motors to LawnPro.com customers.
