It would add a $13.25 per burger addition to our operating income if we went with the variable cost structure and a $30.03 increase per burger using the fixed cost structure8. I think that if this was a recurring order, I strongly suggest using the fixed cost structure since the fixed cost are taken care of already regardless of the special order and will only rise if it is…
