    B) Operating income will increase by $7,500

    Explanation:

    First we calculate contribution per unit which would be as follows:

    Sale price per unit - Variable price per unit = Contribution price unit

    40 - 25 = $15 per unit

    Then we multiple it by the additional increase in units of 2,500.

    15 * 2,500 = $37,500

    Finally, we subtract it with the cost incurred for additional spending.

    37,500 - 30,000 = $7,500

    Hence, the impact of the decision would mean the income has increased by $7,500 in comparison to the expenses incurred.
