Question

c) Mail and his friend, Akmal, are both talented painters. Last year, they started painting postcards which they gave to their friends as a gift. After that, they began selling those postcards at a craft fair and sold them for fun. At the last fair, a buyer who really liked  the postcards and offered them the contract to paint 500 postcards of a specific design  for a price of RM2,000. With the increase in demand, Adam and Akmal decided to  open a business and named it as 4A Craft. Each postcard priced at RM4.00. Variable  operating costs amounted to RM1.50 per postcard. To produce the postcards for the  contract, they have to buy a specific machine for cutting the postcard, which cost the  amount of RM700. 

(i) Solve for 4A Craft’s operating breakeven point value

ii)Solve for of 4A Craft’s EBIT value of that contract.

If mail decides to renegotiate the contract at the price of RM5.00 per  postcard, solve for the new value of EBIT.

iv)If the buyer refuses to pay more than RM4.00 per postcard, but willing to  negotiate on the quantity, identify the quantity of postcards through proper  calculation that will result in the EBIT value of RM1,200.
