Transcribed Image Text:Mohave Corporation makes several varieties of beach umbrellas and accessories. It has been approached by a company called Lost Mine Industries about producing a special order for a custom umbrella called the Ultimate Shade (US). The special-order umbrellas with the Lost Mine Company logo would be distributed to participants at an upcoming convention sponsored by Lost Mine. Lost Mine offered to buy 2,700 US umbrellas at a price of $25 each. Mohave currently has the excess capacity necessary to accept the offer. The following information is related to the production of the US umbrella: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Total cost Regular sales price $ 11.00 6.00 7.00 2.50 $ 26.50 $ 33.00 Required: 1. Compute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order. 2. Should Mohave accept the special order? 3. Suppose the special order had been to purchase 3,200 umbrellas for $23.00 each. Recompute the incremental profit (or loss) from accepting the special order under this scenario. 4.
