Question
![WalangLabel Company is a liquor company, the business has not been performing well this last few months due to the liquor ban imposed by the government. The
company is considering whether it should shutdown temporarily for three months. The selling price and other costs of operating are presented below:
Selling price
P500
Variable manufacturing costs
P280 per unit
Variable selling costs
P60 per unit
Monthly Fixed costs:
Manufacturing costs
P250,000
Selling costs
P120,000
Administrative costs
P125,000
If the company will temporarily close it would incur P150,000 in retrenchment costs and P80,000 in reopening costs. Manufacturing costs and selling cost would not
be incurred and administrative costs of P50,000 would be avoided per month if they decide to shut down. The company expects to sell 100 units per month if it
would continue to operate.
What is the shutdown point in sales?](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F9c285bd6-3865-4731-9805-3176fae28a28%2F372c9d09-88ab-4f5c-95cf-bd572b507f35%2Fbvaxkc7_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
