It is most recommanded to produce 7400 unit with 10% of
reduction of sale price per unit as it has resulted in an
increase of net profit of 30000.

*Means revised sales price /unit
Sale/unit = 1000
Redection in yield to price as a result of increase in
volume = 10%
Hence revised sales price /unit = 1000 x (100-10)% = 900
