- If management wants 15% profit from sales, how many units should the company sells?
- What is the degree of operating leverage (DOL)? If management projects that sales will reduce by 10% next year, what is the percentage decrease in profit?
- If the selling price per unit next year is reduced by 10% and an increase in variable cost per unit by 5% due to the increase in the price of the supplier but this will result in increase in quantity sold next year by 50%.
