Part 2. Gary and Joy are concernedthat the estimated fixed costs are too low. They believe thatthey'll need additional equipment, increasing their fixed costs by$ 31,500. Also, there has been a change in the corporate taxrate. Adjust your analysis to assume an increase of$31.500 in fixed costs and the new corporate income tax rate.
