Before Coronado could give Langston's Landscape Company an answer, the company received a special order from BensonBuilding & Supply for 13,500 fireplaces. Benson is willing to pay $67 per fireplace but it wants a special design imbedded into thefireplace that increases cost of goods sold by $55,350. The special design also requires the purchase of a part that costs $5,500and will have no future use for Coronado Company. Benson Building & Supply will pick up the fireplaces so no shipping costs areinvolved. Due to capacity limitations, Coronado cannot accept both special orders. Which order should be accepted?

Feinan Sports, Inc., manufactures sporting equipment, including weight-lifting gloves. A national sporting goods chain recently submitted a special order for 4,000 pairs of weight-lifting gloves. Feinan Sports was not operating at capacity and could use the extra business. Unfortunately, the order's offering price of $12.70 per pair was below the cost to produce them. The controller was opposed to taking a loss on the deal. However, the personnel manager argued in favor of accepting the order even though a loss would be incurred; it would avoid the problem of layoffs and would help maintain the community image of the company. The full cost to produce a pair of weight-lifting gloves is presented below. Direct materials $ 7.40 Direct labor 3.80 Variable overhead 1.60 Fixed overhead 3.10 $15.90 Total No variable selling or administrative expenses would be associated with the order.
