CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING SITUATION:

Mrs. Smith had stopped by one day and asked for a price on some cabinets.  Snell studied the plan and figured cost would be:

         Lumber                $   600

         Finishing materials              75

         Labor                                 640

         Overhead                  384

         Total                    $1,699

            With markup of 15%, the price would be $1,954.

Mrs. Smith was incensed stating that a competitor down the street, Mr. Haness, quoted a price of $1,600.  It is true that Snell does not want to lay off workers during slow times.  What recommendation would you make?  Why?  AN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY IS REQUIRED FOR THIS PROBLEM.
