    Their profits will increase by $400

    Explanation:

    Consider the incremental costs and revenues arising from the special order

    Note : Fixed costs are irrelevant for this decision because the special order is being accepted within the relevant range.

    Analysis of incremental costs and revenues

    Sales (200 cases*$19) $3,800

    Variable Cost (200 cases*$17) $3,400

    Net Income / (loss) $400

    Result : Their profits will increase by $400
