Camino Company manufactures designer to-go coffee cups. Each line of coffee cups is endorsed by a high-profile celebrity and designed with special elements selected by the celebrity.

Camino has received an offer from a professional wrestling association to design a coffee cup endorsed by its biggest star and produce 20,000 cups for $8 each (total $160,000). These cups would be sold at wrestling matches throughout the United States. Acceptance of the order would require a $60,000 endorsement fee to the wrestling star, but no other increases in fixed operating expenses.
