Selling price$1000$1050
Direct materials (square feet)154,000157,500
Direct materials costs per square foot$51$57
Manufacturing capacity in units of XT1563,70063,700
Total conversion costs$6,943,300$7,325,500

Total selling and customer-service costs$2,550,000$2,660,500
Selling and customer-service capacity cost per customer$15,000$15,650

Izzy's Limited produces no defective units but it wants to reduce direct materials usage per unit of XT15. Manufacturing conversion costs in each year depend on production capacity defined in terms of XT15 units that can be produced. Selling and customer-service costs depend on the number of customers that the customer and service functions are designed to support. Izzy's Limited had 160 customers in 2017 and 165 customers in 2018.

What is the cost effect of the growth component? (Round any intermediary calculations to two decimals and your final answer to the nearest dollar.)

◦ $1,449,700 F
