The Limited is planning a new line of leather jean jackets for fall. It plans to retail the jackets for $100. It is having the jackets produced in the Dominican Republic. Although The Limited does not own the factory, its product development and design costs are $400,000. The unit variable cost of the jacket, including transportation to the stores, is $45. For this line to be successful, The Limited needs to make $900,000 profit. Show ALL you work.

b) The buyer has just found out that The GAP, one of The Limited's major competitors, is bringing out a similar jacket that will retail for $90. If The Limited wishes to match The GAP's price, how many additional units will it have to sell?
