Combat Fire, Inc. manufactures steel cylinders and nozzles for two models of fire extinguishers: (1) a home fire extinguisher and (2) a commercial fire extinguisher. The home model is a high-volume (54,000 units), half-gallon cylinder that holds 2 1/2 pounds of multi-purpose dry chemical at 480 PSI. The commercial model is a low-volume (10,200 units), two-gallon cylinder that holds 10 pounds of multi-purpose dry chemical at 390 PSI. Both products require 1.5 hours of direct labor for completion. Therefore, total annual direct labor hours are 96,300 or [1.5 hours × (54,000 + 10,200)]. Expected annual manufacturing overhead is $1,570,706. Thus, the predetermined overhead rate is $16.31 or ($1,570,706 ÷ 96,300) per direct labor hour. The direct materials cost per unit is $18.50 for the home model and $26.50 for the commercial model. The direct labor cost is $19 per unit for both the home and the commercial models.

Andreasen Corporation manufactures thermostats for office buildings. The following is the cost of each unit:
Materials $ 36.00
Labor 14.00
Variable overhead 4.00
Fixed overhead ($1,800,000 per year; 100,000 units per year) 18.00
Total $ 72.00
Simpson Company has approached Andreasen with an offer to buy 7,500 thermostats at a price of $60 each. The regular price is $100. Andreasen has the capacity to produce the 7,500 additional units without affecting its current production of 100,000 units. Simpson requires that each unit use its branding, which requires a more expensive label, resulting in an additional $2 per unit material cost. The labor cost of affixing the label will be the same as for the current models. The Simpson order will also require a one-time rental of packaging equipment for $20,000.
Required:
a. Prepare a schedule to show the impact of filling the Simpson order on Andreasen’s profits for the year. (Enter your answers in thousands (i.e., 5,400,000 should be entered as 5,400). Select option "higher" or "lower", keeping Status Quo as the base. Select "none" if there is no effect.)
