Problem J Soundoff, Inc., a leading manufacturer of electronic equipment, decided to analyze the profitability of its new portable compact disc (CD) players. On the CD player line, the company incurred $2,520,000 of fixed costs per month while selling 20,000 units at $600 each. Variable cost was $240 per unit.

The new machine would reduce the company's variable costs by 20%, and leasing it would increase fixed costs by $96,000 per year. 1. Compute the break-even point in units assuming use of the old machine. 2. Compute the break-even point in units assuming use of the new machine. 3. Assuming that total sales remain at $12,000,000 and that the new machine is leased, compute the expected net income. 4. Should the new machine be leased? Why
