Answer:

a. Incremental costs = (Direct materials + Direct labor) * 20%

Incremental costs = ($26 + $28) * 20%

Incremental costs = $54 * 20%

Incremental costs = $10.8

Incremental selling price = $72 - $64.8 = $7.2

Incremental profit (loss) = Incremental selling price - Incremental costs = $7.2 - $10.8 = $(3.6)

b. No. As there is Incremental loss, it should not be processed further
