Roxie Company has 17,500 units of its sole product that it produced last year at a cost of $45 each. This year's model is superior to last year's and the 17,500 units cannot be sold for their regular selling price of $80 each. Roxie has two alternatives for these items:
(1) they can be sold to a wholesaler for $35 each, or
(2) they can be reworked at a total cost of $450,000 and then sold for $60 each. The company has enough idle capacity to rework these items without affecting any new production. Which choice would increase the company's profits the most?
