    The company should accept the special order.

    Explanation:

    The company has the capacity to produce 20,000 units and It is currently only producing 13,000 units.

    The company can produce in addition of 7,000 units (more than the number of units from special order)

    The revenue of special order: 6,500 x $62 = $403,000

    Revenue of special order - Incremental cost of accepting the special order = $403,000 - $382,000 = $21,000 >0

    The company gains $21,000 on special order = > The company should accept the special order.
