Lower the Price of the product to increase the profit from excessive sales. This way of increasing sales can be understood from the follwing example:
Current Profit per unit= $300 Market retail price - $50 Labor Cost - $200 Capital cost
Current Profit per unit = $50 per unit
At current selling price, our sales for the month are 2000 units of cell phones.
So our total profit is:
Total Profit= $50 Profit per unit * 2000 total units=$100,000
So if we decrease the price from $300 per unit to $290 per unit, which will reduce the profit per unit to $40 per unit and our sales increases to 3000 units of cell phones.
Now
Total Profit= $40 Profit per unit * 3000 total units sold=$120,000
So we can say reducing the selling price (or reducing the cost of labour and capital which also increase the profit per unit) will increase the demand and profit as well.

1. Calculation of Ratios:
a) Return on total assets = Net income divided by the average total assets, multiplied by 100.
Year 3 = $1,523.9/$57,965 x 100 = 2.6%
Year 2 = $1,940.0/$ 59,642 x 100 = 3.3%
Year 1 = $3,161.7 /$ 60,429 x 100 = 5.2%
b) Return on stockholders' equity: Earnings after taxes/Stockholders' equity x 100.
Year 3 = $1,523.9/$ 6,644 x 100 = 22.9%
Year 2 = $1,940.0/$7,912 x 100 = 24.5%
Year 1 = $3,161.7 /$ 9,667 x 100 = 32.7%
c) Earnings per share: Net Income/No. of outstanding shares.
Year 3 = $1,523.9/315 = $4.84
Year 2 = $1,940.0/334 = $5.81
Year 1 = $3,161.7 /363 = $8.71
d) Dividend yield: This is equal to the annual dividend per share divided by stock price per share, and multiplied by 100.
Year 3 = $2.40/$92.03 x 100 = 2.61%
Year 2 = $2.40/$81.10 x 100 = 2.96%
Year 1 = $2.22/$85.58 x 100 = 2.59%
e) Price-earnings ratio: This is equal to market price per share divided by the earnings per share.
Year 3 = $92.03/$4.84 = 19.0 times
Year 2 = $81.10/$5.81 = 13.9 times
Year 1 = $85.58/$8.71 = 9.8 times

Year 2 = $1,940.0/$ 59,642 x 100 = 3.25%
Year 1 = $3,161.7 /$ 60,429 x 100 = 5.23%
c) Return on stockholders' equity: Earnings after taxes/Stockholders' equity x 100. It demonstrates how much of the earnings after taxes are available to stockholders.
Year 3 = $1,523.9/$ 6,644 x 100 = 22.94%
Year 2 = $1,940.0/$7,912 x 100 = 24.52%
Year 1 = $3,161.7 /$ 9,667 x 100 = 32.71%
d) Earnings per share: Net Income/No. of outstanding shares. It shows in dollar terms how much of the earnings made by a company is available to stockholders on the average of each share.
Year 3 = $1,523.9/315 = $4.84
Year 2 = $1,940.0/334 = $5.81
Year 1 = $3,161.7 /363 = $8.71
e) Dividend yield: This is equal to the annual dividend per share divided by stock price per share, and multiplied by 100. It shows how a company pays dividend each year in relation to its share price.
Year 3 = $2.40/$92.03 x 100 = 2.61%
Year 2 = $2.40/$81.10 x 100 = 2.96%
Year 1 = $2.22/$85.58 x 100 = 2.59%
f) Price-earnings ratio: This is equal to market price per share divided by the earnings per share. It shows if a company is overvalued or undervalued.
Year 3 = $92.03/$4.84 = 19.0 times
Year 2 = $81.10/$5.81 = 13.9 times
Year 1 = $85.58/$8.71 = 9.8 times
