Computation of the real effect on profit if the order is accepted:-

Increase or decrease in profit = (Special order price - Relevant Costs) * Number of special order units

= ($220 - ($133 + $51 + $14)) * 3,060

= ($220 - $198) * 3,060

= $22 * 3,060

= $67,320

Hence, the profit will increase by $67,320
