A retailer wants to sell new pens that in turn are used as bracelets. Each pen costs $400 with the option to return any unsold pens. The permit for the sale costs $150,000. Each pen will be sold for $750. Using the ECUATION and CONTRIBUTION MARGIN methods, determine how many pens must be sold to make neither a loss nor a profit?
Making special pricing decisions
Suppose the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, has approached Collector-Cardz with a special order. The Hall of Fame wishes to purchase 56,000 baseball card packs for a special promotional campaign and offers $0.38 per pack, a total of $21,280. Collector-Cardz’s total production cost is $0.58 per pack, as follows:
Collector-Cardz has enough excess capacity to handle the special order.
Requirements
Prepare a differential analysis to determine whether Collector—Cardz should accept the special sales order.
Now assume that the Hall of Fame wants special hologram baseball cards. Collector—Cardz will spend $5,700 to develop this hologram, which will be useless after the special order is completed. Should Collector-Cardz accept the special order under these circumstances, assuming no change in the special pricing of $0.38 per pack?
Suppose the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, has approached World Wide Cards with a special order. The Hall of Fame wants to purchase 54,000 baseball card packs for a

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 $8 each with a minimum order of 75 sweatshirts. Any additional sweatshirts would have to be ordered in increments of 75. 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 $13.50 each. Hooper would pay the students a commission of $1.50 for each shirt sold. Required: 1.
