What is the margin of safety, both in dollars and as a ratio?

If sales increase by 51,000 units and the cost behaviors do not change, how much will income increase on this product?
Waterways is thinking of mass-producing one of its special-order sprinklers. To do so would increase variable costs for all sprinklers by an average of $0.20 per unit. The company also estimates that this change could increase the overall number of sprinklers sold by 10%, and the average sales price would increase $0.20 per unit. Waterways currently sells 491,240 sprinkler units at an average selling prioe of $26.50. The manufacturing costs are $6,863,512 variable and $2,050,140 fixed. Selling and administrative costs are $2,651,652 variable and $294,950 fixed. If Waterways begins mass-producing its special-order sprinklers, how would this affect the company?
