Based upon practical capacity, the company's average cost = $35.00. Fixed expenses represent 40.0% of the average cost. Currently, Damato sells 13,000 Panettone at a price of $28.00 each. Gustiamo's Italian Bakery requests an order of 5,000 Panettone at a special price = $24.00. The 15.0% sales commission paid on the current sales will be eliminated on the special order.
