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
