Question
Miyamoto Jewelers is considering a special order for 10 handcrafted gold bracelets to be given as gifts to members of a wedding party. The normal selling price of a gold bracelet is $389.95 and its unit product cost is $264.00 as shown below:
Most of the manufacturing overhead is fixed and unaffected by variations in how much jewelry is produced in any given period. However, $7 of the overhead is variable with respect to the number of bracelets produced. The customer who is interested in the special bracelet order would like special filigree applied to the bracelets. This filigree would require additional materials costing $6 per bracelet and would also require acquisition of a special tool costing $465 that would have no other use once the special order is completed. This order would have no effect on the company%u2019s regular sales and the order could be fulfilled using the company%u2019s existing capacity without affecting any other order.
What effect would accepting this order have on the company's net operating income if a special price of $349.95 is offered per bracelet for this order? (Input the amount as a positive value. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
I'm not sure what the net operating incoming would be. Please submit the right answer.

Explanation / Answer
Hi,
Please find the answer as follows:
Cost of Producing Additional Units
Variable Costs
Fixed Cost = 465
Net Operating Income = 10*349.95 - 10*242 - 465 = 614.5
Thanks.
