a. Assume in 20X2 that the same 17,600-unit volume is maintained, but that the sales
price increases by 10 percent. Because of FIFO inventory policy, old inventory will
still be charged off at $7 per unit. Also assume selling and administrative expense will
be 5 percent of sales and depreciation will be unchanged. The tax rate is 30 percent.
Compute aftertax income for 20X2.
b. In part a, by what percent did aftertax income increase as a result of a 10 percent
increase in the sales price? Explain why this impact took place.
c. Now assume that in 20X3 the volume remains constant at 17,600 units, but the sales
price decreases by 15 percent from its year 20X2 level. Also, because of FIFO
inventory policy, cost of goods sold reflects the inflationary conditions of the prior
year and is $7.50 per unit. Further, assume selling and administrative expense will be
5 percent of sales and depreciation will be unchanged. The tax rate is 30 percent.
Compute the aftertax income.
