Coronation makes a line of antiseptic and conditioning cream for the medical community. The
company stakeholders decided to develop a retail line. However, because of their conservative
nature, the CEO will introduce only one of the new products for this year. If successful, they will
expand in future years.
They selected to sell the conditioning cream in a tube. The company will sell the product to
wholesalers in boxes of 24 tubes for $16.00 per box. Since there's available capacity, the
company will not incur additional fixed charges to produce the product. However, to allocate a
fair share of the company's current fixed costs to the new product, the product will absorb a
$135,000 fixed charge.
Using estimated sales and production of 100,000 boxes of conditioning cream as the standard

- A country club wants to exam the effects of a new marketing campaign that attempts to get more people within the community to become members. In many communities, when people buy a house in the area, they receive a “Welcome Wagon” gift basket containing coupons to local restaurants. The idea of the marketing campaign is to include a free two month membership to the country club in the gift basket with the hope that once “new” residents try the country club then at least a certain proportion will want to become real members. One member of the Club’s Executive Council believes that at least 81% of the people who receive the coupons for the free membership will use the coupon. In a sample of 192 new residents who received the coupon for the two month free membership, there were 138 people who actually took advantage of the free two month membership.

The school administrator is not technology savvy and therefore sought advice from three of the board members who were knowledgeable in the information systems and technology field. One director advised the administrator to purchase an off-the-shelf solution that would allow the school to get the system configured and up and running in a short period with reasonable costs. The second advised the administrator to invest in the development of a unique system to meet the custom requirements of the school’s administration. He suggested that this would create a closer fit to the school’s needs compared to purchasing software, but will cost more. The third director suggested using an open-source solution which would have little if any upfront costs but may require some customization.
