1. In question one you computed the number of hammers to sell to find a point of indifference for the demand to decide whether or not to add the hammers. Now, using Guilias estimates and assumptions for both piton and hammer production and sales, what would be the total annual aggregate effect on TOTAL gross margin of adding the production and sales of the new wall hammer product line?
