Question

Hall Company had sales in 2014 of $1,722,600 on 63,800 units. Variable costs totaled $765,600, and fixed costs totaled $406,100.

A new raw material is available that will decrease the variable costs per unit by 27% (or $3.24). However, to process the new raw material, fixed operating costs will increase by $155,300. Management feels that one-half of the decline in the variable costs per unit should be passed on to customers in the form of a sales price reduction. The marketing department expects that this sales price reduction will result in a 5% increase in the number of units sold.

(a) Prepare a projected CVP income statement for 2014, assuming the changes have not been made. (Round per unit cost to 2 decimal places, e.g. 5.25 and all other answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 1,225.)
