Following a strategy of product differentiation, Izzy's Limited Company makes a high-end Appliance, XT15. Izzy's Limited presents the following data for the years 2017 and 2018:

20172018
Units of XT15 produced and sold59,00061,200
Selling price$900$930
Direct materials (square feet)150,000153,500
Direct materials costs per square foot$58$64
Manufacturing capacity in units of XT1563,20063,200
Total conversion costs$6,636,000$7,204,800
Conversion costs per unit of capacity$105$114
Selling and customer-service capacity (customers)160160
Total selling and customer-service costs$2,480,000$2,584,000
Selling and customer-service capacity cost per customer$15,500$16,150

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 145 customers in 2017 and 150 customers in 2018.

What is the net effect on operating income as a result of the productivity component? (Round any intermediary calculations to two decimals and your final answer to the nearest dollar.)
