<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

The data of SAG of special order is given below:

Cost per unit = $3.50 , Allocated fix cost = $1.50 , Number of units in order = 15000

<u>Calculated the total cost of the special order as follows: </u>

Incremental cost per unit = Cost per unit-Allocated fix cost  =$(3.50 minus 1.50)  =$2

Incremental cost per unit=cost per unit-allocated fix cost  =$(3.50 minus1.50) =$2

Total incremental cost 15000 unit = number of units in order x Incremental cost per unit  =15000 multiply $2  =$30000

Therefore, total cost of the special order is $30000

b) Offering price by ETU = $35000. Hence, the offer made by ETU would affect the short term of the special order.

Contribution cost = $(35000 minus 30000)  =$5000
