Incremental analysis for the special order


Assignment: Gruner Company produces golf discs which it normally sells to retailers for $7.16 each. The cost of manufacturing 20,200 golf discs is:

Materials                $10,302
Labor                      29,290
Variable overhead    20,402
Fixed overhead        39,592
Total                      $99,586

Gruner also incurs 8% sales commission ($0.57) on each disc sold.

Travis Corporation offers Gruner $4.76 per disc for 4,000 discs. Travis would sell the discs under its own brand name in foreign markets not yet served by Gruner. If Gruner accepts the offer, its fixed overhead will increase from $39,592 to $44,222 due to the purchase of a new imprinting machine. No sales commission will result from the special order.
