Sandra's Kreations just completed its best year, generating income of $28,000 from selling decadent wedding cakes and desserts. For a business that is only two years old and run from Sandra's own kitchen, this is quite an accomplishment. She has been asked to provide a special-event cake for one event per month at the local convention center, but at a reduced price of $430. While this is mostly fantastic news, Sandra realizes that she is already working at maximum capacity. If she commits to these events, she will need to either find additional capacity or reduce her regular wedding cake sales. The following income statement shows Sandra's results from last year. Sales $200,000 COGS 131,000 트플 Gross margin 69,000 Operating expenses 41,000 Operating income $28,000 Sandra's average selling price is $1,000 per cake; fixed-MOH costs are $67,000 and are included in COGS. All other product costs vary based on volume. Average variable operating expenses are $106 per cake; remaining operating expenses are fixed. After thinking about it further, she realizes she'll avoid the variable operating expenses on the special-event cakes.
