Answer:

$11,760

Explanation:

The sales less the variable cost gives the contribution margin. The contribution margin less the fixed cost gives the net operating income/profit.

Without the new offer

Profit = 5000($29 - $15) - $20,900

= $70,000 - $20,900

= $49,100

For the new order a variable selling cost of $2 per unit would be eliminated, the contribution of the order will be

= 1680($20 - $15 + $2)

= 1680 * $7

= $11,760

This is the differential effect on profit.
