The Congress Company has identified two methods for producing playing cards. One method involves using a machine having a fixed cost of $10000 and variable
costs of $1.00 per deck of cards. The other method would use a less expensive machine (fixed cost = $5000) but it would require greater variable costs ($1.50
per deck of cards). If the selling price per deck of cards will be the same under each method at what level of output will the two methods produce the same
net operating income (EBIT)? (a) 5000 decks
(b) 10000 decks
(c) 15000 decks
(d) 20000 decks
(e) 25000 decks
