Question

Lattimer Company had the following results of operations for the past year:
Sales (15,000 units at $12)
$180,000
Variable manufacturing costs $97,500
Fixed manufacturing costs 21,000
Selling and administrative expenses (all fixed) 36,000 (154,500)
Operating income
$ 25,500

A foreign company whose sales will not affect Lattimer's market offers to buy 5,000 units at $7.50 per unit. In addition to existing costs, selling these units would add a $0.25 selling cost for export fees. If Lattimer accepts this additional business, the special order will yield a:
A.$2,000 loss.
B.$8,250 loss.
C.$3,750 profit.
D.$3,250 loss.
