Softstep Stables has developed a lighter horseshoe for thoroughbreds, called the Air Citation. The company is presently experiencing labor difficulties and plans to raise wages to avert a strike. This will increase the Variable Cost per shoe from $$15$ to $$24.$ The shoes presently sell for $$50$ each, but due to the competitive environment, Softstep Stables plans to drop their price to $$45$ each. Their current $($sales$)$ volume is $1,136$ units. Fixed costs are $$1,541.$

Assuming the sales volume DOES NOT change after the price increase, what is the total contribution to profit AFTER the price and cost change?
