If Natalia accept this offer, she will not lose money but she will gain less profit then other sales of 70000 bags. Natalia will get the profit of only $3 instead of $5 for her routine sales. They were producing on their 70% capacity. Their total capacity is of 100000 bags so she can produce 30000 more bags from her existing production setup. Here in this variable production cost she has $3 for direct labour and $2 for direct material cost so her variable total cost is $5 and the fixed cost is $5 so it makes sense that Natalia’s production cost is $10 for the first bag and then after her production cost would become $5. Now if Natalia accept this offer with Brazilian company of 20000 bags then she has to sale a bag on $8. So she can earn $3 from each bag because her production cost is total of $5. After all she will not lose but make lesser money than usual.
