Functionsa. What strategies might the company use to deal with this increase in costs? Choose all that are reasonable.
A publisher for a promising new novel figures fixed costs (overhead, advances, promotion, copy editing, typesetting, and so on) at $55,000, and variable costs (printing,
paper, binding, shipping) at $1.30 for each book produced. With this pricing, 5671 books need to be produced and sold at $11.00 each for the publisher to break even.
However, rising prices for paper require an increase in variable costs to $1.80 for each book produced.
Use this information to complete parts a. through c.
A. Increase the selling price of the book.
B. Increase the font size of the print in the book.
C. Decrease the fixed costs.
D. Find different suppliers to try and lower the variable costs.
