meant that these goods will now sell for $42,000 with costs to sell of $2,500.
ii)Materials purchased at a cost of $30,000 per tonne which will be sold at a profit. The
manufacturer of the materials has just announced that from now on they will sell these materials
to you at a lower price of $28,000 per tonne.
