Clifford Co. manufactures and sells adjustable windows for remodeling homes and new housing, Clifford developed its budget for the current year assuming that the windows would sell at a price of $500 each. The variable costs for each window were forecasted to be $250 and the annual fixed costs were forecasted to be $130,000 Clifford had targeted a profit of $450,000. While Clifford's sales usually increase during the second quarter, the May financial statements reported that sales were not meeting expectations. For the first five months of the year, only 400 units had been sold at the established price, with variable cost as planned, and it was clear that the target profit for the year would not be reached unless some actions were taken Clifford's president assigned a management committee to analyze the situation and develop several alternative courses of action. The following three alternatives were presented to the president, only one of which can be selected 1. Reduce the selling price by $50. The marketing department forecasts that with the lower price 3.200 units could be sold during the remainder of the year, 2. Lower variable costs per unit by 530 through the use of less expensive materials. Because of the difference in materials, the selling price would have to be lowered by $40 and sales of 2600 units for the remainder of the year are forecast 3. Cut foved costs by $15.000 and lower the selling price by 5 percent Sales of 2.200 units would be expected for the remainder of the year, Required: a. If no changes are made to the selling price or cost structure, estimate the number of units that must be sold during the year to break even b. If no changes are made to the selling price or cost structure, estimate the number of units that must be sold during the year to attain the target profit of $450,000 c. Determine which of the alternatives Cufford's president should select to maximize profit
