unit of this product at the company's normal activity level of 40,000 units per month is
as follows:
The normal selling price of the product is $51.10 per unit.
An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,000 units to be delivered

this order than on normal sales.
Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.

The Varone Company makes a single product called a Hom. The company has the
capacity to produce 40,000 Homs per year. Per unit costs to produce and sell one Hom
at that activity level are:
The regular selling price for one Hom is $60. A special order has been received at
Varone from the Fairview Company to purchase 8,000 Homs next year at 15% off the
regular selling price. If this special order were accepted, the variable selling expense
would be reduced by 25%. However, Varone would have to purchase a specialized
machine to engrave the Fairview name on each Hom in the special order. This machine
would cost $12,000 and it would have no use after the special order was filled. The total
fixed costs, both manufacturing and selling, are constant within the relevant range of
30,000 to 40,000 Homs per year. Assume direct labor is a variable cost.
If Varone can expect to sell 32,000 Homs next year through regular channels and the
special order is accepted at 15% off the regular selling price, the effect on net operating
income next year due to accepting this order would be a:
A. $52,000 increase
B. $80,000 increase
C. $24,000 decrease
D. $68,000 increase
