Waterways is thinking of mass$-$producing one of its special$-$order sprinklers. To do so would increase unit variable costs for all sorinklers by an average of $$0\mathrm{.}70.$ The company also estimates that this change could increase the overall number of sprinklens sold by $10\%,$ and the average unit sales price would increase $$0\mathrm{.}20.$ Waterways currently $5$ ells $490,000$ sprinklerunits at an average unit selling price of $$28\mathrm{.}60.$ The manufacturing costs are $$7,866,260$ variable and $$2,011,486$ fived. Selling and administrative costs are $$2,644,240$ variable and $$809,370$ fixed.

If Waterways begins mass$-$producing its specibl$-$order sprinklers, how would this affect the company? $($Raund ratio amswars to $0$ decimal phaces. ex$.52$ and net incame answers to $2$ decimal places, e$.$g$5,27525.$
