In July, normally a slack manufacturing month, Shamrock receives a special order for 11,340 basketballs at $31.00 each from the Italian Basketball Association. Accepting the order would increase variable selling and administrative expenses by $0.25 per unit because of shipping costs, but it would not increase fixed costs and expenses.
Required -
1. Prepare an incremental analysis for the special order.
2. Should Shamrock Inc. accept the special order?
3. What is the minimum selling price on the special order to produce net income of $5.00 per ball?
