Polaski Company manufactures and sells a single product called a Ret. Operating at capacity, the company can produce and sell 26,000 Rets per year. Costs associated with this level of production and sales are as follows: Unit Total Direct materials $ 17.00 $ 442,000 Direct labour 10.00 260,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 5.00 130,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead 11.00 286,000 Variable selling expense 4.00 104,000 Fixed selling expense 6.00 156,000 Total cost $ 53.00 $ 1,378,000 The Rets normally sell for $58 each. Fixed manufacturing overhead is constant at $286,000 per year within the range of 17,000 through 26,000 Rets per year. Required: 1. Assume that, due to a recession, Polaski Company expects to sell only 17,000 Rets through regular channels next year. A large retail chain has offered to purchase 9,000 Rets if Polaski is willing to accept a price lower than the regular $58. There would be no sales commissions on this order; thus, variable selling expenses would be slashed by 75%. However, Polaski Company would have to purchase a special machine to engrave the retail chains name on the 9,000 units. This machine would cost $18,000. Polaski Company has no assurance that the retail chain will purchase additional units any time in the future. Determine the maximum discount that Polaski can offer to this large retail chain in order for it to be no worse off compared to its current profit. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your percentage answer to nearest whole number.)
