	Per Unit
Direct materials	$	45.60
Direct labor	$	8.70
Variable manufacturing overhead	$	1.70

The normal selling price of the product is $98.10 per unit.

An order has been received from an overseas customer for 2,600 units to be delivered this month at a special discounted price. This order would not change the total amount of the company's fixed costs. The variable selling and administrative expense would be $1.80 less per unit on this order than on normal sales.

Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.

Suppose there is ample idle capacity to produce the units required by the overseas customer and the special discounted price on the special order is $82.40 per unit. The monthly financial advantage (disadvantage) for the company as a result of accepting this special order should be:

• ($39,000)

• $17,420

• $65,520

• ($23,660)
