A total of $100,000 has been budgeted for advertising, contests, redeemable coupons, and other promotional activities. The following data have been assembled for their possible usefulness in deciding which of the products to select for the campaign: Tennis Shoe Walking Shoe
Unit selling price $85 $100
Unit production costs:
Direct materials $19 $32
Direct labor 8 12
Variable factory overhead 7 5
Fixed factory overhead 16 11
Total unit production costs $50 $60
Unit variable selling expenses 6 10
Unit fixed selling expenses 20 15
Total unit costs $76 $85
Operating income per unit $9 $15

No increase in facilities would be necessary to produce and sell the increased output. It is anticipated that 7,000 additional units of tennis shoes or 7,000 additional units of walking shoes could be sold without changing the unit selling price of either product.

Required:
Prepare a differential analysis as of June 19, 2014, to determine whether to promote tennis shoes (Alternative 1) or walking shoes (Alternative 2).
