Granger Company makes portable DVD players. In its inventory, Granger found 200 DVD players that had become obsolete. Each DVD player has a cost of $100. Granger can upgrade these DVD players for $15 each after which they can be sold at a cost of $40 each. Granger has also received an offer to sell the DVD players, as is, for a total of $4,000. Compared to just selling the 200 DVD players for a total of $4,000 as they are, what is the net increase (decrease) in operating income if Granger upgrades the DVD players and then sells them

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
