Concept explainers
Suppose the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, has approached Collector-Cardz with a special order. The Hall of Fame wishes to purchase 56,000 baseball card packs for a special promotional campaign and offers $0.38 per pack, a total of $21,280. Collector-Cardz’s total production cost is $0.58 per pack, as follows:
Collector-Cardz has enough excess capacity to handle the special order.
Requirements
- 1. Prepare a differential analysis to determine whether Collector-Cardz should accept the special sales order.
- 2. Now assume that the Hall of Fame wants special hologram baseball cards. Collector-Cardz will spend $5,700 to develop this hologram, which will be useless after the special order is completed. Should Collector-Cardz accept the special order under these circumstances, assuming no change in the special pricing of $0.38 per pack?
