Do you have any ideas? Thomas: Well, I think the best strategy would be to become aggressive on price. James: How aggressive? Thomas: If we drop the price to 60 per unit and maintain our advertising budget at 15,000,000, I think we will generate total sales of 2,000,000 units. James: I think thats the wrong way to go. Youre giving up too much on price. Instead, I think we need to follow an aggressive advertising strategy. Thomas: How aggressive? James: If we increase our advertising to a total of 25,000,000, we should be able to increase sales volume to 1,400,000 units without any change in price. Thomas: I dont think thats reasonable. Well never cover the increased advertising costs. Which strategy is best: Keep the price and advertising budget as set, follow the advice of Thomas Seymour, or follow the advice of James Hamilton?arrow_forward
