[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Cane Company manufactures two products called Alpha and Beta that sell for $165 and $130, respectively. Each product uses only one type of raw material that costs $8 per pound. The company has the capacity to annually produce 113,000 units of each product. Its unit costs for each product at this level of activity are given below:

	Alpha				Beta
Direct materials		$	40			$	24
Direct labor			29				25
Variable manufacturing overhead			15				14
Traceable fixed manufacturing overhead			25				27
Variable selling expenses			21				17
Common fixed expenses			24				19
Total cost per unit		$	154			$	126

The company considers its traceable fixed manufacturing overhead to be avoidable, whereas its common fixed expenses are deemed unavoidable and have been allocated to products based on sales dollars

Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 99,000 Betas during the current year. One of Canes sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 2,000 additional Betas for a price of $48 per unit. If Cane accepts the customers offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease?
