The Shirt Works sells a large variety of tee
shirts and sweatshirts. Steve Hooper, the
owner, is thinking of expanding his sales
by hiring high school students, on a
commission basis, to sell sweatshirts
bearing the name and mascot of the local
high school.
These sweatshirts would have to be
ordered from the manufacturer six weeks
in advance, and they could not be
returned because of the unique printing
required. The sweatshirts would cost
Hooper $20.00 each with a minimum
order of 175 sweatshirts. Any additional
sweatshirts would have to be ordered in
increments of 175.
Since Hooper's plan would not require
any additional facilities, the only costs
associated with the project would be the
costs of the sweatshirts and the costs of
the sales commissions. The selling price
of the sweatshirts would be $40.00 each.
Hooper would pay the students a
commission of $5.00 for each shirt sold.
