Answer:

c. investment expenditures

Desired profit for the year = $2,329,000

Explanation:

Using the given information, we have

Production volume = 602,000 units

Market price = $34

Operating income desired = 17% of total assets

Total Assets = $13,700,000

Operating income = $13,700,000 $\times$ 17% = $2,329,000

Therefore desired profit = $2,329,000

therefore with this information desired profit per unit = $2,329,000/602,000 = $3.869

Target cost per unit = $34 - $3.869 = $30.131

Desired profit for the year = $2,329,000
