[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

 

Baskin Promotions, Inc. sells T-shirts decorated for a variety of concert performers. The company has developed the following budget for the coming year based on a sales forecast of 90,000 T-shirts:

 

   
Sales $ 1,584,000  
Cost of Goods Sold   931,500  
Gross Profit   652,500  
Operating Expenses ($100,000 is fixed)   458,200  
Operating Income   194,300  
Income Taxes (30% of operating income)   58,290  
Net Income $ 136,010  
 

   

 

Cost of goods sold and variable operating expenses vary directly with sales, and the income tax rate is 30% at all levels of operating income.

 

If the concert season is slow due to poor weather, Baskin estimates that sales could fall to as low as 70,000 T-shirts.
