Costs per unit Relevant to the offer:

Material: Rs. 4.25 + Labour Rs. 5.75 + Variable OH Rs. 7.75 = Rs. 17.75

Since Fixed costs remains same irrespective of the production volume and as given in question, Selling OH will not be occuring for the order, both these costs are irrelevant in this decision making.

Our Marginal Cost is Rs. 17.75 and in the present scenario, if we could generate any contribution on these 25000 units, it will add to our profit.

Expected Profit is Re.1/- p.u. Thus our SP must be atleast Rs. 18.75 to generate the profit of Re 1. p.u.
