Explanation / Answer

(a). When Regal has excess capacity;-

While accepting this special order Regal has to incur only the variable cost related to product. The fixed cost remain the same it will not increase the cost of special order.

Calculation of profit or loss;-

Direct material (900×$20). = 18000

Direct labour (900×32). = 28800

Variable manufacturing overhead (900×18) = 16200

--------------

Cost of extra 900 units. =63000

----------------

Sales price (900×$ 80) =72000

Cost price. =63000

------------

Profit. =9000

So accept the special order as the profit is increased by 9000.

(b). When does not have excess capacity

By accepting this special order the fixed as well as variable both cost have to consider. Cost of producing extra unit is same as of 1200 units. That is $ 90 per unit.

Calculations for profit and loss

Sales price (900×80). = 72000

Less Cost of good sold (900×90) =( 81000)

Gross loss. =( 9000)
