I thought I asked you nicely. Sorry if my question came across as otherwise. I'm still baffled how selling 15 guitars at cost creates a loss of $10K, unless if his overhead attributed to the 15 CA guitars is $10K (which is not very likely)? By definition, selling at cost = breakeven, i.e. no profit but no loss, either.
Or maybe what you meant by "loss" is really Lost Revenue, not Operating Loss. But again, in business school and throughout my business career, "Loss" always refers to Operating Loss or Net Loss, but never lost revenue.
