    Incremental profit = $30000

    so correct option is a. $30,000

    Explanation:

    given data

    Variable costs = $75

    Fixed costs = 30

    sales price = $165

    to find out

    incremental profit or loss from accepting

    solution

    we get here contribution per unit will be here as

    contribution per unit = $165 - $75

    contribution per unit = $90

    now we get here loss on contribution for giving up regular sale that is

    loss on contribution = $3000 * $90

    loss on contribution = $270000

    and

    now we get Incremental contribution for special order will be

    Incremental contribution = (135 - 75) * 5000

    Incremental contribution = $300000

    and

    Incremental profit will be = $300000 - $270000

    Incremental profit = $30000

    so correct option is a. $30,000
