Wildhorse's managers have determined that variable costs per unit will increase by 16% beginning next month. To offset this increase in costs, they are considering a 10% increase in the sales price. Market research indicates that the price increase will result in a 2% decrease in the number of learning systems Wildhorse sells. What will be Wildhorse's expected operating income if the price increase is implemented? (Round per unit calculations to 2 decimal places e.g. 52.75 and final answer to O decimal places, eg. 5,275.)
