Assuming that currently , ABC’s sales is 3,000 chairs and is earning a net income of P1,000,000. What will
be the effect of the following on ABC’s net income ? ( Assume that the following are independent from

in 20% decrease in variable cost per unit , but 15% increase in fixed cost. Sales would remain the
same
2. Spend P 600,000 on a new sales campaign , which would increase sales by 20%
3. Increase the selling price by P250 per unit, which will cause a demand to drop by 10%
4. Add a second manufacturing facility which would double ABC’s fixed cost but would increase
sales by 60%
5. Lower the price by 5% , which would increase sales by 10%
6. Adding new designs that will cost an additional P100 per unit but will increase sales by 20
percent
