Hiker's Choice manufactures and sells 11 different models of hiking gear. Hiker's Choice is contemplating a 5% price cut across all 11 models. It expects the price cut to result in a 9% increase in the number of units sold for models X2401, X2403, X2405, and X2407. The other seven models (X2402, X2404, X2406, X2408, X2409, X2410, and X2411) are expected to see a 6% increase in sales volume. Assess the impact of the price cut on Hiker's Choice’s profits and prepare a profit and loss statement.
