Question

The manufacturing capacity of Ritter Rotator Company's plant facility is 60,000 rotators per quarter. Operating results for the first quarter of this year are as follows:

Sales (36,000 units at $10)	$360,000
Variable manufacturing costs	216,000
Contribution margin	144,000
Fixed costs	99,000
Operating income	$ 45,000

A foreign distributor has offered to buy 30,000 units at $9 per unit during the second quarter of this year. Domestic demand is expected to remain the same as in the first quarter.

Required

1. Determine the impact on operating income if Ritter accepts this order. Assume that if the company accepts the order, it foregoes sales to regular domestic customers.
2. In the above result (a), what other considerations are relevant in this decision?
3. In the above result (a), what should be the minimum acceptable offer price?
4. Assume that Ritter decides to run an extra shift so that it can accept the foreign order without forgoing sales to its regular domestic customers. The proposed extra shift would increase capacity by 25% and increase fixed costs by $25,000. Determine the impact on operating income if Ritter operates the extra shift and accepts the export order.
5. In the above result (d), what other considerations are relevant in this decision?
