How to calculae net income & break-even point? Crane has proposed a plan to get the partnership "out of the red" and improve its profitability. She feels that the quality of the product could be substantially improved by spending $0.25 more per unit on better raw materials. The selling price per unit could be increased to only $5.25 because of competitive pressures. Crane estimates that sales volume will increase by 25%. Compute the net income under Crane's proposal and the break-even point in dollars.
