Prepare an incremental analysis


Problem: 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.

Prepare an incremental analysis for the special order.
