The theory X consists of a set of assumptions that that a manager or leader has regarding their subordinates. This theory is one of the theories of management that was developed by a social Psychologist known as Douglas McGregor.
According to Theory X, as proposed by McGregor, it is assumed that people are naturally lazy, and unwilling to work. It also assumes that they have little ambition, and would try as much as possible to avoid work. This theory assumes also that motivation that is monetary is what majorly drives people to work.

Answer:
- $25.50
- 90,000 units
- 140,000 units
Explanation:
1. Current contribution margin ratio
= (Selling price - Variable cost)/ Selling price
= (25 - 19.8) / 25
= 0.208
New Direct labor = 5.0 * ( 1 + 8%)
= $5.40
New variable cost = 19.8 + 0.4 = $20.20
To maintain 0.208
0.208 = (Selling price - 20.20) / Selling price
0.208 * Price = Price - 20.20
0.208Price - Price = -20.20
-0.792Price = -20.20
Price = -20.20/-0.792
Price = $25.50
2. Breakeven = Fixed Cost / Contribution Margin
Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost
= 25 - 19.8
= $5.20
= 468,000/5.2
= 90,000 units
3. To earn $260,000;
= (Fixed Cost + 260,000) / Contribution margin
= (468,000 + 260,000) /5.2
= 140,000 units
