The Wheeler-Lea amendment made unfair or deceptive acts or practices in commerce illegal under Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act.

<h3>What was Federal Trade Commission Act?</h3>

The Federal Trade Commission was founded by the Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914, federal legislation of the United States. The Act, which was passed by US President Woodrow Wilson in 1914, forbids unfair business practices and unfair techniques of competition.

Unfair or misleading acts or practices in or affecting commerce are prohibited by Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act (FTC Act) (15 USC 45). All individuals engaged in business, including banks, are subject to the restriction.

The Federal Trade Commission Act's Section 5 was modified by the Wheeler-Lea Act of 1938, which made "unfair or misleading acts or practices" and "unfair methods of competition" illegal. Civil penalties were offered for breaking Section 5 orders.

                                        Fatboy             Screamer           Total

Units Assembled               990                 1,980                  2,970

Materials cost per unit      $ 2,600        $ 3,600

Material Costs                   2574000         7128000  

Other costs:

Direct labor                          $1069200       2138400      $ 3,207,600

Indirect materials                                                                 534, 600

<u>Cost per Unit                       27800              3779.80   </u>

The total costs have been added and then divided with the number of units to get the cost per unit.

Direct Labor Costs  =Total Direct Labor Costs/ Total number of units* required number of units

DLC for Fatboy= $ 3,207,600 /2970 *990= $1069200

DLC for Screamer= $ 3,207,600 /2970 *1980= 2138400

FActory Overheads = Total Factory Costs/ Total Units ( Required Units)

FOH for Fatboy=  534, 600 +1,603,800/2970 * 990= 712800
