Answer:
$23,000
Explanation:
current annual sales = 49,000 packs
Selling price of course packs = $14 each
variable cost per pack = $12
Earnings = $75,000
Contribution:
= current annual sales × (Selling price of course packs - variable cost per pack)
= 49,000 packs × ($14 - $12)
= 49,000 packs × $2
= $98,000
Fixed costs of producing the course packs:
= Contribution - Earnings
= $98,000 - $75,000
= $23,000
