- Eastman Publishing Company is considering publishing an electronic textbook about spreadsheet applications for business. The fixed cost of manuscript preparation, textbook design, and web site construction is estimated to be $171,000. Variable processing costs are estimated to be $8 per book. The publisher plans to sell single-user access to the book for $41. Through a series of web-based experiments, Eastman has created a predictive model that estimates demand as a function of price. The predictive model is demand = 4,000 − 6p, where p is the price of the e-book.
