Whispering Winds Inc. manufactures two electronic products, widgets and gadgets, and has a capacity of 1,500 machine hours. Prices and costs for each product are as follows:

		Widget		Gadget
Selling price per unit		$255		$335
Variable costs per unit
Direct materials		35		40
Other direct costs		15		17
Variable Manufacturing overhead costs*		35		49

* Variable manufacturing overhead costs are applied at a rate of $45 per machine hour. Paver Industries, a potential client, has offered $254 per unit to Whispering Winds for 254 special units. These 254 units would incur the following production costs and time:

Direct materials		$8,756
Other direct costs		$3,500
Machine hours		230

Assume that Whispering Winds has enough excess capacity to produce the special order. Calculate what the total contribution would be if the special order from Paver were accepted.
