Number of chargers produced per month, N = 4,000
Material cost, C1 = RO 5 per unit,
Cost of labor, C2 = RO 3 per unit
and other manufacturing overheads, C3 = RO 2 per unit.
Goodwill electronics pays R = RO 2,000 per month as a rent.
Company adds M = 20% profit on total cost and distributes the chargers to retailers.
