=  11.70% ($32,125/$274,500 * 100)

d. The selling price of Product K is:

= $11.47 ($286,625/25,000)

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Production and sales unit of Product K = 25,000

Variable costs per unit:

Direct materials                                  $2.50

Direct labor                                           4.25

Factory overhead                                 1.25

Selling and administrative expenses 0.50

Total                                                     8.50      $212,500

Fixed costs:

Factory overhead                                              $25,000  $237,500

Selling and administrative expenses                   17,000

Total production and sales costs =                $254,500

5% rate of return on invested assets                 32,125 ($642,500 * 5%)

Total costs + target profit                              $286,625
