Computation of Operating Income:  
Sales( 3000*$216) $648,000.00
Less: Variable Cost  
Direct Material (130*3000) $390,000.00
Direct Labor (50*3000) $150,000.00
Manufacturing Overhead(14*3000) $42,000.00
Operating Income $66,000.00
No. of Units 3000.00
Operating Profit per unit $22.00

 

Yes the profit will increase by $66,000.

 

 

Note: Fixed overhead is called period cost and are expected to remain same for the range of unit of production.

So the Fixed cost is not considered in the above calculation.
