Near the end of 2020, X Company had produced and sold 69,000 units of its only product. Costs for these units were:

	Total	Per-Unit
Direct materials	$110,400	$1.60
Direct labor	117,300	1.70
Variable overhead	186,300	2.70
Fixed overhead	151,800	2.20
Variable selling and administration	79,350	1.15
Fixed selling and administration	69,000	1.00
Total	$714,150	$10.35

Just before the year ended, a company offered to buy 4,070 units for $14.20 each. X Company had the capacity to produce the additional 4,070 units, but because the special order product was slightly different than the regular product, direct material costs were expected to increase by $0.10 per unit, and some special equipment would have to be rented for a total of $17,000.

A: $6,381

B: $8,486

5. Assume that if X Company had accepted the special order, it would have had to lower the selling price of its regular product to prevent the loss of regular customers. The price of its regular product is normally set at 30% above total manufacturing cost per unit, but it would have to reduce it to $10.27 per unit. The effect of lowering the selling price would have been to decrease company profits by

A: $26,910

B: $39,020

C: $56,578

D: $82,038

E: $118,956
