Louis Company sells a single product at a price of $65 per unit. Variable costs per unit are $45, and total fixed costs are $625,500. Louis is considering the purchase of a new piece of equipment that would increase the fixed costs to $800,000 but decrease the variable costs per unit to $42.If Louis Company expects to sell 44,000 units next year, should it purchase this new equipment?

Under the current system, Louis's profit when 44,000 units are sold is
[($65 - $45) × 44,000] - $625,500 = $254,500
If the new equipment is purchased, Louis's profit when 44,000 units are sold is
[($65 - $42) × 44,000] - $800,000 = $212,000
Louis is better off not buying the new equipment.
