Due to erratic sales of its sole product-a high-capacity battery for laptop computers-PEM, Inc., has been experiencing financial difficulty for some time. The company's contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given below:

Sales (12,900 units x $20 per unit) $ 258,000
Variable expenses 129,000
Contribution margin 129,000
Fixed expenses 144,000
Net operating loss $ (15,000)

Refer to the original data. The sales manager is convinced that a 10% reduction in the selling price, combined with an increase of $36,000 in the monthly advertising budget, will double unit sales. If the sales manager is right, what will be the revised net operating income (loss)?
