Jacob: To get you started, 150 ACT transmitters at $800,000 each would be $120,000,000 in sales. But $800,000 - the price of the Las Vegas ACT transmitter - might be low since we can assume ACRO wanted to get that first sale made. Also, once ACRO gets over $12 mil. in sales, margins should begin to go up dramatically. We were on our way to rapid margin improvement in the last 6 months of 1995, when ACRO last operated at a profit. If ACRO is once more operating profitably, as some of us believe, we should get a peek at the potential for margin improvement. This is a simple manufacturing story: keep costs controlled, sell enough product to take your factory to capacity. That can happen very fast at ACRO.
