Johnson Company came to Ray Corp., asking to order 2,000 units with slightly reduced functionality. The lower functionality would lower the DM cost to $5.75 per unit, but DL and all OH costs would be the same as normal units (no additional fixed overhead is necessary to make these units). Because of the lower functionality, Johnson is requesting a lower price.

Instead of paying full price, the Special Olympics is asking for the lowest price Ray Corp would accept to make the deal.
