It's not going to happen. You may re-read 1st post:
"The new parent company may ask for higher profit ratio and we will make due efforts in that direction, centering on DSLR. We may not pursue larger quantity but will try to make our customers satisfied with attractive products."
$250 is unrealistic - just compare the price of a P&S and the labor requirement for a DSLR vs P&S. So even if it is achievable, there would be no money to be made there.
