Metlock Inc. manufactures two electronic products, widgets and gadgets, and has a capacity of 1,400 machine hours. Prices and costs for each product are as follows:

		Widget		Gadget
Selling price per unit		$ 254		$ 334
Variable costs per unit
Direct materials		34		39
Other direct costs		14		16
Variable Manufacturing overhead costs*		34		48

* Variable manufacturing overhead costs are applied at a rate of $ 44 per machine hour. Marx Industries, a potential client, has offered $ 254 per unit to Metlock for 254 special units. These 254 units would incur the following production costs and time:

Direct materials		$ 8,368
Other direct costs		$ 3,400
Machine hours		229

Assume that Metlock has enough excess capacity to produce the special order. Calculate what the total contribution would be if the special order from Marx were accepted.
