You Just Got Your First Job After Graduation

question 104

Essay

You just got your first job after graduation. Your immediate supervisor received a special order at a price that is "below cost" during your first week at the company. The supervisor points to the proposal and says, "These are the kinds of orders that will get you in trouble. Every sale must bear its share of the full costs of running the business. If we sell below our full cost, we'll be out of business in no time." You remember from your course in cost accounting that this may not be as much trouble as the supervisor anticipates. How would you respond and not lose your first job?
