Supposed the Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, has approached Special Design Cards with a special order. The Hall of Fame wishes to purchase 57,700 card packs for a special promotional campaign and offers $0.37 per pack. Special Design Cards total production cost is $0.48 per pack, as follows:

Variable Costs:
Direct Materials $0.11
Direct Labor $0.02
Variable overhead $0.11
Fixed overhead $0.24
Total Costs $0.48

 

Prepare a differential analysis to determine whether Special Design Cards should accept the special sales order.

Special Design Cards
Expected increase in revenue  
Expected increase in variable manufacturing costs  
Expected increase (decrease) in operating income         


Now assume that the Hall of Fame wants special hologram football cards. Special Design Cards will spend $4,970 to develop this hologram, which will be useless after the special order is completed. Should Special Design accept the special order under these circumstances, assuming no change in the special pricing of $0.37 per pack?
