Merrylаnd Tоy Cоmpаny mаkes tоy airplanes. One plane is an excellent replica of the Boeing 737; it sells for $8. Joyous Airlines wants to purchase 15,000 planes at $4 each to give to children flying unaccompanied. Costs per plane are as follows: Direct materials $1.25 Direct labor $2.05 Variable manufacturing overhead $0.50 Variable marketing $0.10 Fixed overhead $0.70 No variable marketing costs would be incurred for the special order. The company is operating significantly below the maximum productive capacity. No fixed costs are avoidable. However, Joyous Airlines wants its logo and colors on the planes. The decals cost $0.05 per plane, and a special machine costing $2,000 would be required to affix the decals. After the order is complete, the machine is scrapped. Should the special order be accepted?
