The company is well known for its attention to quality and innovation. During the past 15 months, a new product has been under development that allows users improved access to e-mail and video images. Johnson and Gomez code named the product the Wireless Wizard and has been quietly designing two models: Basic and Enhanced. Development costs have amounted to $201,000 and $282,000, respectively. The total market demand for each model is expected to be 53,000 units, and management anticipates being able to obtain the following market shares: Basic, 20 percent; Enhanced, 15 percent.

Sales salaries (excluding commission) will be $92,000 no matter which product is sold. The marketing and advertising costs indicated for each product are incurred only if that product is sold.
