Answer:
The order should be accepted as it will icnrease contribution by 2,700 dollars
Sales revenue 112,500
variable cost (106,800)
additional fixed cost (3,000)
contribution 2,700
Explanation:
We have to calculate the variable cost to compare against the offer sales price:
COGS
2,600,000 x 70% = 1,820,000
Operating expense
840,000 x 80% = 672,000
total variable 2,492,000
variable per unit:
2,492,000 / 350,000 = 7.12
we now calculate the contribution of the order and subtract the additional cost:
15,000 units x (7.50 - 7.12) -3,000 additional shipping
contribution 2,700
