Answer:

rework the units by spending $750 extra in order to get $1,500 in revenue

Explanation:

The company incurred in the following sunk costs:

  • production costs = $2 per unit

Since the 500 units were all defective the company can:

sell the defective units at $1 each = $1 x 500 = $500 revenue

reworking the units for $1.50 each and selling them for $3 ⇒ contribution margin = $3 - $1.50 = $1.50 per unit, which results in a $750 gross profit

The company must consider the $1,000 spent first as sunk costs, since whatever action they decide, they will not recover them. Therefore the company must only analyze the alternatives starting from scratch.
