Dexter Company has been approached by a new customer with an offer to purchase 1,400 units of Dexter's product at a price of P3 each.

Dexter Company has been approached by a new customer with an offer to purchase 1,400 units of Dexter's product at a price of P3 each. The new customer is graphically separated from Dexter's other customers, and there would be no effect on existing sales. Dexter normally produces 10,000 units but only plans to produce and sell 8,000 in the coming year. The normal sales price is P5 per unit.

Unit cost information is as follows:

Direct materials P0.75
Direct labor 0.80
Variable overhead 0.40
Fixed Overhead 2.00
Total 3.95

If Dexter accepts the order, no fixed manufacturing activities will be affected because there is sufficient excess capacity. However, the distribution center at the warehouse is operating at full capacity and would need to add capacity costing P1,000 for every 5,000 units to be packed and shipped.

BY HOW MUCH WILL PROFIT INCREASE/ DECREASE IF THE ORDER IS ACCEPTED?
