Talladega Tire and Rubber Company has capacity to produce 162,000 tires. Talladega presently produces and sells 124,000 tires for the North American market at a price of $115 per tire. Talladega is evaluating a special order from a European automobile company, Autobahn Motors. Autobahn is offering to buy 19,000 tires for $97.85 per tire. Talladega’s accounting system indicates that the total cost per tire is as follows:

Direct materials $44
Direct labor 16
Factory overhead (70% variable) 26
Selling and administrative expenses (40% variable) 23
Total $109
Talladega pays a selling commission equal to 5% oof the selling price on North American orders, which is included in the variable portion of the selling and administrative expenses. However, this special order would not have a sales commission. If the order was accepted, the tires would be shipped overseas for an additional shipping cost of $6 per tire. In addition, Autobahn has made the order conditional on receiving European safety certification. Talladega estimates that this certification would cost $115,900.

a. Prepare a differential analysis dated July 31 on whether to reject (Alternative 1) or accept (Alternative 2) the special order from Autobahn Motors. If an amount is zero, enter zero "0". If required, round interim calculations to two decimal places.
