    a) increase of $5,720

    Explanation:

    The relevant cash flows for this decision are:

    the variable cost of production - 17 - 2 = 15 per unit * 1,430 = $21,450 The sales revenue from the order - $19 * 1,430 = $27,170

    The contribution from the special order would be determined as follows:

    Contribution from special order = sales revenue - variable cost

    = (19 - 15) * 1,430 = $5,720

    Increase of = $5,720
