Its manufacturing plant has the capacity to produce 10,000 medals each month; current monthly production is 7,640 medals. The company normally charges $260 per medal.

For this particular order, no variable marketing costs will be incurred. Cathy Senna, a management accountant with Award Plus, has been assigned the task of analyzing this order and recommending whether the company should accept or reject it. After examining the costs, Senna suggested to her supervisor, Gerard LePenn, who is the controller, that they request competitive bids from vendors for the raw materials because the current quote seems high. LePenn Insisted that the prices are in line with those of other vendors and told her that she was not to discuss her observations with anyone else. Senna later discovered that LePenn is a brother-in-law of the owner of the current raw materials supply vendor. Required: 1.
