The modifications would cost approximately $380. A summary of the information related to production of MSIs current history program follows: Direct materials $ 1.08 Direct labor 0.42 Variable manufacturing overhead 2.20 Fixed manufacturing overhead 1.90 Total cost per unit $ 5.60 Sales price per unit $ 12.00 Required: 1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order. 2. Should MSI accept the special order? Yes No 3. Suppose that the special order had been to purchase 1,300 copies of the program for $5.50 each. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario. 4. Suppose that MSI is operating at full capacity. To accept the special order, it would have to reduce production of the history program. Compute the special order price at which MSI would be indifferent between accepting or rejecting the special order. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
