Circuit Masters Incorporated $($CMI$)$ is presently operating at $80\%$ of capacity and manufacturing $126,000$ units of a patented electronic component. The cost structure of the component is as follows:

$\backslash$table$[[$Raw materials,$$6\mathrm{.}60$ per unit$],[$Direct labor,$6\mathrm{.}60$ per unit$],[$Variable overhead,$8\mathrm{.}60$ per unit$],[$Fixed overhead,$$441,000$ per year$]]$

An Italian firm has offered to purchase $20,600$ of the components at a price of $$27\mathrm{.}00$ per unit, FOB CMI's plant. The normal selling price is $$33\mathrm{.}80$ per component. This special order will not affect any of CMI's "normal" business. Management calculated that the cost per component is $$25\mathrm{.}30,$ so it is reluctant to accept this special order.

Required:

a$.$ Calculate the fixed overhead per unit.

b$.$ Is the cost calculation appropriate?

c$.$ Should the offer from the Italian firm be accepted?
