Signal mistakenly produced 1,000 defective cell phones. the phones cost $60 each to produce. a salvage company will buy the defective phones as they are for $30 each. it would cost signal $80 per phone to rework the phones. if the phones are reworked, signal could sell them for $120 each. assume there is no opportunity cost associated with reworking the phones. compute the incremental net income from reworking the phones.

We are asked to solve for the incremental net income from reworking the phones.
Number of items = 1000
Production Cost = 1000*$60 = $60,000
Salvage value = 1000*$30 = $30,000
Rework Cost = 1000 *80 = $80,000
Price when resold = 1000 * $120 = $120,000

Incremental Net = $120,000 + $30,000 - $60,000 -$80,000
Incremental Net = $10,000

The answer is $10,000. 

Number of defective cell phone produced = 1000.

Defective phones cost $30 each.

Cost of defective phones =30x1000=30,000.

Cost of producing 1000 cell phones = 60x1000=$60,000.

Cost of rework= 80x1000=80,000.

Rework phone sale value =120x1000=120,000.

Incremental net income = 120,000-80,000-30,000= $10,000.

The  incremental net income from reworking the phones is $10,000.
