Summer Corp produces high end swimming pool floats. The Floater 5000 sells for $300. Summer produces and sells 6,000 of them per year. Cost data are as follows:

Variable manufacturing

$120

per unit

Variable selling and administrative

$19

per unit

Fixed manufacturing

$390,000

per year

Fixed selling and administrative

$175,000

per year

Pools R Us has asked Summer Corp to produce 50 units at a special price of $240 per unit for a one-time only sale. The sale will not negatively impact the company's regular sales activities and will require the normal variable manufacturing costs and selling and administrative costs.

There is plenty of excess capacity and the deal will not impact fixed costs.
