Budgeted income statement
for the year
Sales ($28 per unit)$5,600,000
Cost of Good Sold ($19 per unit)(3,800,000)
Gross profit1,800,000
Selling Expenses ($5 per unit)(1,000,000)
Net Income$800,000


additional information
(1) Fixed costs of production and sales expenses are $1,520,000 and $750,000, respectively.

(2) VideoSecu received a special order from a hospital supply company offering to purchase 10,000 wall mounts for $15. If you accept the order, there will be no additional selling costs, and there is currently enough spare capacity to fulfill the order. The company's sales manager argues in favor of rejecting the order because "we are not in the business of paying $19 to make a product that sells for $15."
