Answer:

Increase by $17,050

Explanation:

In our analysis, we will use the incremental revenue and cost only. That means we exclude fixed costs since they are irrelevant for this decision and are already incurred.

Analysis of effects of accepting the special order

Sales (3,100 units x $23.50)                                               $72,850
