ElectronPlus manufactures and sells a unique electronic part Operating results for the first three years of activity were as follows (absorption costing basis) Sales dropped by 20% during year 2 due to the entry of several foreign competitors into the market. ElectronPlus had expected sales to remain constant at 58.000 units for the year, production was set at 68,000 units in order to build a buffer against unexpected spurts in demand.
