Sagot :

Answer: $94.12

Explanation:

The company expects a return of 11% on $540,000.

= 540,00 * 11%

= $59,400

The total cost:

= 62.50 * 28,000 units

= $1,750,000

Total to be realized from sales:

= Cost of products + selling and administrative expenses + return

= 1,750,000 + 826,000 + 59,400

= $‭2,635,400‬

Selling price per product:

= ‭2,635,400‬ / 28,000 units

= $94.12

Options are most probably for another variant of the question.
