The Gamecock Corporation is working at full production capacity

The Gamecock Corporation is working at full production capacity production 10,000 units of the
unique product, R250. Manufacturing cost per unit for R250 is as follows:
Direct Materials ......... $ 2
Direct manufacturing labor .... 3
Manufacturing overhead ..... 5
Total manufacturing cost ..... $ 10

Manufacturing overhead cost per unit is based on variable cost per unit of $2 and fixed costs of
$30,000 (at full capacity of 10,000 units). Marketing cost per unit, all variable is $4. And the
selling price is $ 20.
A customer, the Lauderdale Company, has asked Gamecock to produce 2,000 units of R250-1,
a modification of R250. R250-1 would require the same manufacturing processes as R250.
Lauderdale has offered to pay Gamecock $15 for a unit of R250-1 plus half of the marketing
cost per unit.
