5. Approving or Disapproving the plan
Disapprove, by using absorption costing and producing additional units of GPS will
make the net operating income to $2,000,000, it still does not show the good
performance in sale which is still the main goal of the company by reflecting through
increasing the target net operating income, but using absorptiong costing will
maximize the production of the GPS maximizing the fixed manufacturing cost.
6. Advice
To determine the bonuses in the future, the board of directors should use a
performance-based bonus, not purely on financial aspect but on the overall
performance of the managers.
