The CEO wants to price the new product at a level that will bring operating income up to $4000 per month. What sales price should be charged

$7.88

Explanation:

The computation is given below:

Sales price is

= ( Total sales revenue ÷ packages sold)

And,

Total sales revenue is

= ( Total Cost + Operting income )

And,  

Total Cost = ( Variable Cost + Fixed cost)

Now

Variable cost = 1,000 packages × $1.90 per unit

= $1,900

And,

Fixed cost = $1,800 × 110%

= $1,980

so

Total cost = $1,900 + $1,980

= $3,880

Now  

Total sales revenue is

= $3,880 + $4,000

= $7,880

 Now  

Sales price = $7,880 ÷ 1,000 packages

= $7.88
