Pacifica Company makes frames. A customer wants to place a special order for 1,000 frames in green with the company logo painted on the frame, to be priced at $70 each. Normally, Pacifica would charge $100 per frame for this type of order. Pacifica estimates that wood and glass will cost $25 per frame, variable overhead (machining, electricity) is $5 per frame, direct labor is $10 per frame, and one setup will be required at $1,500 per setup. The setup charge costs are 100% labor. Currently, the workers needed to set up and make the frames are working at Pacifica. Their wages will be paid whether or not the special order is accepted. Pacifica's policy is to avoid layoffs to the extent possible. If Pacifica accepts the special order, by how much will operating income increase or decrease?
