12.The following are the Jensen Corporation's unit costs of making and selling an item at a volume of 2,800 units per month (which represents the company's capacity):

  Manufacturing:  

  Direct materials                     $2.80

  Direct labor                           $3.80

Present sales amount to 1,600   units per month. An order has been received from a customer in a foreign market for 280 units. The order would not affect current sales. Fixed costs, both manufacturing and selling and administrative, are constant within the relevant range between 1,600 units and 2,800 units. The variable selling and administrative expenses would have to be incurred on this special order as well as for all other sales. Direct labor is a variable cost.

Assume the company has 90 units left over from last year which have small defects and which will have to be sold at a reduced price for scrap. The sale of these defective units will have no effect on the company's other sales. Which of the following costs is relevant in this decision?

a) $8.90 variable manufacuting cost

b) $9.65 unit product cost

c) $3.80 variable selling and administrative cost
