The PM's base salary is $200,000, and the MM's is $280,000. The target profit for this year is $9 million. The production manager has been approached by an engineering consulting firm that is willing to license to Westphalia a new manufacturing technique that would increase annual profit by 15 percent, after deducting the licensing fee. The PM is unsure whether to employ the new technique this year, wait, or not employ it at all. Using the new technique will not affect the target. Required: a. Suppose that profit without using the technique this year will be $9 million. By how much will the PM's bonus change if the new technique is adopted?
