Winnebagel Corp. currently sells 25,544 motor homes per year at $59,558 each, and 8,375 luxury motor coaches per year at $115,975 each. The company wants to introduce a new portable camper to fill out its product line; it hopes to sell 20,619 of these campers per year at $20,526 each. An independent consultant has determined that if Winnebagel introduces the new campers, it should boost the sales of its existing motor homes by 7,988 units per year, and reduce the sales of its motor coaches by 504 units per year. What is the amount to use as the annual sales figure when evaluating this project?
