Compute the sales units required if the company wishes to generate a Target Income Before Taxes of $100,000 for all 3 scenarios. 10. What would the net income be under Alternative 1-Bakery and Alternative 2-Drive-Thru if CCC was unable to increase sales in units (sales units remain the same as last year)? 11. The company can only pick one of the alternatives (Either Bakery or Drive-Thru), due to the time and resources involved.

You will need to state 2 qualitative reasons and 3 quantitative (financial) reasons.
Best friends, Nathan and Cody, decided to start their own
business which would bring great coffee from all over the world
to their local community. Together they formed Classic Coffee
Company, or CCC (assume their coffee shop is located a few
miles from our college campus). Nathan is selecting and
making the coffee they serve. Cody manages the front and
back office; selling coffee to customers, paying employees, and
running ads for the coffee shop.
Last year, the company sold 50,000 units and had the below
sales and cost figures.

Alternative 1- Bakery
Facing stiff competition from other coffee and beverage
shops, Classic Coffee Company (CCC) is considering
expanding its products to include bakery items. They would not
make the food items themselves, but have items delivered from
outside vendors. CCC would now experience higher average
sales amounts per customer since beverage sales may be
accompanied with food sales. This would, however, increase
the company's variable costs since it would need to purchase
the food items from outside vendors. The following data
pertains to adding the bakery option:
• Total sales in the number of units would increase 25%
with the added bakery option.
• The average sales price per unit would increase from the
current $3.00 to $5.00 when food sales are added to the
coffee shop.
• The variable cost per unit would increase to $2.50 per
unit to account for the added cost of bakery items.
• There would be an increase in fixed costs of $25,000 for
advertising to inform the public of this change.
Alternative 2 - Drive Thru
CCC is thinking about having a drive-thru installed. Having
this amenity would help the coffee shop increase its customer
base, allowing them to reach a greater number of customers.
This added convenience would permit CCC to slightly increase
the price of its average coffee and would not increase the per
unit variable costs for the company. The following data pertains
to adding the drive-thru option:
• This alternative is exclusive of alternative 1
• Total sales in the number of units would increase by
130% from last year.
• The construction of the drive-thru would increase fixed
costs by $130,000 - which represents one-time
construction and installation costs.
• This alternative would allow CCC to increase their
average sales price to $3.20 a cup of coffee and their
variable cost per unit would remain the same at $0.90
per unit.
