The first order is for 100 units of a product with a contribution margin ratio of 60% and a selling price of $1,000. (hint CM is 60% *$1000)

The second order is for 500 units of a product with a contribution margin ratio of 20% and a selling price of $800. The incremental fixed costs are the same for both orders. Which order do you accept?
