aria's Food Service provides meals that nonprofit organizations distribute to handicapped and elderly people. The following is h

er forecasted income statement for April, when she expects to produce and sell 3,200 meals: Amount Per Unit Sales revenue $ 19,840 $ 6.20 Costs of meals produced 14,720 4.60 Gross profit $ 5,120 $ 1.60 Administrative costs 2,240 0.70 Operating profit $ 2,880 $ 0.90 Fixed costs included in this income statement are $4,864 for meal production and $640 for administrative costs. Maria has received a special request from an organization sponsoring a picnic to raise funds for the Special Olympics. This organization is willing to pay $3.60 per meal for 300 meals on April 10. Maria has sufficient idle capacity to fill this special order. These meals will incur all of the variable costs of meals produced, but variable administrative costs and total fixed costs will not be affected.

Answer:

Increase operational profit by $156

Explanation:

As for the provided information, we know that the there is an idle capacity lying, which can now be used, and since the capacity is idle, no extra fixed cost will be incurred.

The variable cost for each unit is as follows:

Cost of meal produced = $14,720 which includes fixed cost of $4,864, variable cost = $14,720 - $4,864 = $9,856

Cost per meal = $9,856/3,200 = $3.08

Administrative cost as provided will not be affected.

Thus, the total relevant cost per meal = $3.08

Cost of 300 meals = $3.08 \times 300 = $924

Since the organization will pay $3.60 per meal, there will be total revenue from such sales as follows:

$3.60 \times 300 = $1,080

Less: Total Cost = ($924)

Profit = $156

Therefore, this special order will increase the operating profit of Maria by $156.
