Requirement 3. As in requirement 1, assume that monthly capacity is

Reward Plus
is concerned that if it accepts the special order, its existing customers will immediately demand a price discount of
$15
in the month in which the special order is being filled. They would argue that
Reward Plus's
capacity costs are now being spread over more units and that existing customers should get the benefit of these lower costs. Should
Reward Plus
accept the special order under these conditions? Show your calculations.
Select the labels and then enter the amounts to calculate the net effect on operating income from accepting the special order under this scenario. (Use a minus sign or parentheses to show a net decrease in operating income from accepting the special order. Abbreviations used: Operating income = OI; Special order = SO.)
