Tarazzz Company manufactures computers. The following cost information for the manufacture of one computer has been compiled. Direct materials $48 Direct labor 64 Variable manufacturing overhead 40 *Fixed manufacturing overhead 48 Total cost per unit $200 *The $48 amount reflects the amount of indirect cost allocated to each unit. However, as indicated, the total of these indirect costs is fixed. Tarazzz has received a special order for 1,000 computers at a price of $150 per unit. By how much will overall company net income change if the order is accepted

Answer 1

Answer:

Company net income will DECREASE by $2,000 if the order is accepted.

Explanation:

Company net income will DECREASE by $2,000 if the order is accepted.

Additional order will produce additional sales revenue of $150 per unit

The marginal cost for this order = Variable costs (Direct material + Direct labour + variable cost) =$152 per unit

Since the marginal cost ($152) is more than the revenue ($150)per unit, there will be a loss of $2 per unit.

So the net income of the company will DECREASE by $2000 ($2x 1000)
