Mary Willis is the advertising manager for Bargain Shoe Store. She is currently working on a major promotional campaign. Her ideas include the installation of a new lighting system and increased display space that will add $18,200 in fixed costs to the $133,000 currently spent. In addition, Carla Vista is proposing that a 5% price decrease ($20 to $19) will produce a 20% increase in sales volume (20,000 to 24,000). Variable costs will remain at $12 per pair of shoes. Management is impressed with Carla Vistas ideas but concerned about the effects that these changes will have on the break-even point and the margin of safety.

Compute the current break-even point in units, and compare it to the break-even point in units if Mary's ideas are used. (Round answers to O decimal places, e.g 1,225.)
