The firm is considering modification of a table to make it more attractive to individuals and businesses that buy office products through online retailers. The table is small, can be used to hold a computer printer or fax machine, and has several shelves for storage. The company's marketing department surveyed potential buyers of the table regarding five proposed modifications. The 200 survey participants were asked to evaluate the modifications by using a five-point scale that ranged from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). Their responses, along with DF's related unit costs for the modifications, follow. The table currently costs $64 to produce and distribute, and DF's selling price for this unit averages $80. An analysis of competitive tables in the marketplace revealed a variety of features, with some models having all of the features that DF is considering and other models having only a few. The current manufacturers' selling prices for these tables averages $95. roblem 15-42 Part 1 equired: There is a need in target costing to: (You may select more than one answer.
