Instead, No Streak has elected to add Sheer Shine, a miraculous windshield cleaning solution, to its product mix offering. The variable cost to manufacture and sell each bottle of Sheer Shine is $7 and each bottle sells for $10. Additional fixed costs of $10,000 are required to manufacture Sheer Shine. Based on analyses of competitors. No Streak estimates that it would manufacture and sell two bottles of Sheer Shine for every three windshield wipers that it manufactures and sells. Assuming this product mix is accurate, how many windshield wipers and bottles of Sheer Shine must No Streak sell in order to breakeven this year?Show transcribed image text No Streak, Inc. manufactures windshield wipers for its single client, Go Fast Motors.
