Tablet Tailors sells tablet PCs combined with Internet service, which permits the tablet to connect to the Internet anywhere and set up a Wi-Fi hot spot. It offers two bundles with the following terms.

1. Tablet Bundle A sells a tablet with 3 years of Internet service. The price for the tablet and a 3-year Internet connection service contract is \(500. The standalone selling price of the tablet is \)250 (the cost to Tablet Tailors is \(175). Tablet Tailors sells the Internet access service independently for an upfront payment of \)300. On January 2, 2017, Tablet Tailors signed 100 contracts, receiving a total of \(50,000 in cash.

2. Tablet Bundle B includes the tablet and Internet service plus a service plan for the tablet PC (for any repairs or upgrades to the tablet or the Internet connections) during the 3-year contract period. That product bundle sells for \)600. Tablet Tailors provides the 3-year tablet service plan as a separate product with a standalone selling price of \(150. Tablet Tailors signed 200 contracts for Tablet Bundle B on July 1, 2017, receiving a total of \)120,000 in cash.

Instructions

In September 2017, Gaertner Corp. commits to selling 150 of its iPhone-compatible docking stations to Better Buy Co. for \(15,000 (\)100 per product).

After 90 stations are delivered, the contract is modified and Gaertner promises to deliver an additional 45 products for an additional \(4,275 (\)95 per station). All sales are cash on delivery.

Instructions
