Answer:

The annual capacity is 85000 units. If order is accepted of 12000 units the company will be able to sell only 73000 units (instead of 78000).

Explanation:

Current Net Income calculation and New Net Income calculation are atteched in the archive.

  • Increase in income = new income – old income = 370000 – 340000 = $30000
  • Marston’s Net Income will INCREASE by $30,000 if it accepts the special order.
  • The above increase can be also understood as---

Contribution gain on special order – 12000 units x ($105-$90) = $180,000

(-) Contribution lost of normal sale – (78000 units – 73000 units) x ($120-$90) = $150000

Net INCREASE = 180000 – 150000 = $30,000
