Lispell Co. manufactures in-line skates that sell for $128 a pair. The company is currently operating at capacity, 2,000 pairs. A special order from a foreign distributor for 400 pairs of skates at $120 a pair has just been received.

Direct materials $48

Direct labor $12

Variable overhead $4

Fixed overhead $5 ($10,000 2,000 pairs)

Variable selling and administrative $8 (sales commissions)
