It costs Waterway Industries $12 of variable and $5 of fixed costs to produce one bathroom scale which normally sells for $35. A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 3600 scales at $15 each. Garner would incur special shipping costs of $1 per scale if the order were accepted. Waterway has sufficient unused capacity to produce the 3600 scales.

    Effect on income = $7,200 increase

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    It costs Waterway Industries $12 of variable

    A foreign wholesaler offers to purchase 3600 scales at $15 each. Garner would incur special shipping costs of $1 per scale if the order were accepted.

    Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.

    Effect on income = 3,600 * (15 - 13) = $7,200 increase
