Answer:

Effect on income= $2,000 increase

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Previous selling price= $60

New selling price= $75

Increase in fixed costs= $38,000

Units sold= 2,400

We weren't provided with information regarding unitary variable costs. We need to determine the effect on income based on the selling price difference:

Effect on income= 2,400*(75-60) - 38,000

Effect on income= $2,000 increase
