You are given the following total costs for a production facility for protective cases for laptop computers:

Number of units
Produced ('000)		 0 100 200 300 400
Total Cost ($'000) 600    2,000 3,200 4,200 6,600


Assume the production facility produces where average variable costs are minimized. If the price is $12.50 per case, what is your gain or loss? (If a loss, enter it as a negative number. Don't enter this as 'thousands of dollars' -- take into account that costs and output units are in thousands.)

We constantly seem to be pricing ourselves out of some markets and not charging enough in others. Our pricing policy is pretty simple: we mark up our full manufacturing cost by 50%. That means a computer that costs us $2,000 to manufacture will sell for $3,000. Until now I thought this was a workable approach, but now I’m not so sure. Steve Works, CEO, Cortland Manufacturing, Inc. (CMI) Steve’s Controller, Sally Nomer, had just told him that she believed the...
