Answer:

Here are the possible answers:

a) making the best possible ethical choice.

b) going to make a terrific President of the United States some day.

c) none of these.

d) ultimately going to be rewarded by having the most profitable car

The answer is: c) none of these.

Explanation:

Ethics in industries related to manufacturing things that are of critical importance to public safety and security is very important.

The behavior of a manager like Lee is deemed as highly unethical, as he puts the marketing and design need in front of an essential need such as safety compliance.

Regardless of the ethics perspective, it is also irrelevant to state that this kind of car would be the most profitable. That could be possibly true in the short-run (due to intensive design and marketing efforts), but on the other hand, a critical dose of bad PR when an accident occurs (due to low safety improvement efforts) can be devastating for the company's profit in the long run.

A firm expects to sell 25,500 units of its product at $16 per unit. pretax income is predicted to be $60,500. If variable costs are $8 per unit, total fixed costs must be $143,500.

Fixed costs are costs that stay constant no matter changes in production volume, implying that irrespective of whether output rises or decreases, total fixed costs remain constant within the relevant range.

Rent, labor, depreciation, insurance, and other fixed costs per unit fluctuate over the relevant range, on the contrary.

Given,

Selling price = $16

Variable cost per unit = $8

Units sold = 25,500

Pretax income = $60,500

Contribution Margin = (Selling Price Per Unit - Variable Cost Per Unit) * Units Sold

Substituting the provided information into the above calculation yields,

Contribution margin = ($16 - $8) * 25,500 units                                

= $204,000

Formula:

Pretax Income = Contribution Margin - Fixed Costs

This symbolizes,

Fixed Costs = Contribution Margin - Pretax Income

Substituting the provided information into the above calculation yields,

Fixed Costs = $204,000 - $60,500                

= $143,500

Hence, the answer is $143,500.
