Answer:

Effect on income= $11,250

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production costs:

Variable= $2.25

Special offer:

Selling price= $3

Units= 15,000

Because it is a special offer, and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs.

Effect on income= Number of units*unitary contribution margin

Unitary contribution margin= 3 - 2.25= $0.75

Effect on income= 15,000*0.75= $11,250
