As a result of a strike at its 1 existing towel supplier, a luxury hotel chain has offered to buy 5,000 towels from Jacob Fabrics at $11 per towel. No subsequent sales to this customer are anticipated. Fixed manufacturing costs are tied to the 48,000 towel production capacity. The acceptance of this special order is not expected to affect the selling price or the quantity of towels sold to regular customers. Should Jacob accept the hotel chain's offer?4.
