Question

Swifty Corporation is unsure of whether to sell its product assembled or unassembled. The unit cost of the unassembled product is $24 and Swifty would sell it for $56. The cost to assemble the product is estimated at $20 per unit and the company believes the market would support a price of $69 on the assembled unit. What decision should Swifty make

Answer 1

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Assembled product

Cost = $24 + $20 = $44

Selling price = $69

Profit = $69 - $44 = $25

Unassembled product

Cost = $24

Selling price = $56

Profit = $56 - $24 = $32

Therefore, Swifty corporation should sell before assembly, the company will be better off by $7
