Requirement
Assuming that the cost per unit remains $ 7
and the MSDA expenses remain $105,000 per?quarter, determine the difference between the breakeven time metrics under the initial assumptions and the new assumptions.
Begin by recalculating the data using the new assumptions for quarters 1 through 4 for years 1 and 2. ?(Enter currency amounts in thousands instead of in dollars. Use parentheses or a minus sign for?losses.)
