Answer:

Increase in Operating Income of $102,500.

Explanation:

Consider the incremental effects as follows

Sales (2,300 × $75)                              $172,500

Less Variable Costs ( 2,300 × $25)    ($57,500)

Contribution                                          $115,000

Less Fixed Costs                                  ($12,500)

Change in Operating Income             $102,500

Therefore,

The effect is an Increase in Operating Income of $102,500.
