Triple A, a company selling medical tools, wants to increase its capacity to produce surgical face masks to supply to hospitals due to high demand to cope with COVID-19. Estimated cash fixed operating cost, non-cash fixed operating cost, and unit variable cost are 800,000 baht, 200,000 baht, and 1.20 baht, respectively. Assume a tax rate is 25%. 1. What is the minimum price per piece the company can charge to cover all costs if the company expects to produce 1,000,000 pieces? 2. If the mask can be sold at the maximum price of 2.50 baht apiece due to the control by government, how many masks the company needs to sell to earn 1,200,000 baht of net operating profit? 3. If the mask can be sold at the maximum price of 2.50 baht apiece due to the control by government, how many masks the company needs to sell to earn 1,200,000 baht of net operating profit after tax? 4. The company expects that the base-case scenario on the sale is 1,100,000 masks at 2.50 baht apiece, what is the degree of operating leverage at this sale level? 5. Based on the worst-case scenario on the sale of surgical masks, we could see a shorter recovery period of COVID-19 by the end of the year. Thus, the company expects sales to decline to 2,000,000 baht, what would be the operating profit? 6. Based on the best-case scenario on the sale of surgical masks, we could see a longer recovery period of COVID19 because people neglect self-quarantine and social distancing. Thus, the company expects sales to rise to 6,000,000 baht, what would be the operating profit
