Answer:

B. 20,904

Explanation:

For computing the additional pens first we have to determine the contribution per unit which is shown below:

Revenue $500,000

Less: Plastic cost -$200,000

Less: ink cost -$1,000

Contribution margin $299,000

Divided by Number of units sold ($500,000 ÷ $2) $250,000

Contribution per unit $1.196

Now the additional pens required is

= $25,000 ÷ $1.196

= $20,904

Explanation:

In this case option A is the correct option, i.e. Carolina will accept the new cosmetic line but Sanders will reject the new cosmetic line. This is because Carolina being the president of Deed Corporation would like to take the cosmetic line differently and with the expected rate of return of 12%, i.e. higher than the minimum required rate of return of 8%.

However, Sanders has achieved a 14% rate of return from his cosmetic division thus, being the manger he would not like his performance to go down with 12% return from the new cosmetic line. Thus, option A is the correct option.
