Forever Ready Company expects to operate at 90% of productive capacity during May. The total manufacturing costs for May for the production of 36,900 batteries are budgeted as follows:

Direct materials	$479,300
Direct labor	176,200
Variable factory overhead	49,290
Fixed factory overhead	99,000
Total manufacturing costs	$803,790

The company has an opportunity to submit a bid for 2,000 batteries to be delivered by May 31 to a government agency. If the contract is obtained, it is anticipated that the additional activity will not interfere with normal production during May or increase the selling or administrative expenses.
