    A. $9,860 net increase in operating income if the ceiling fans are repaired.

    Explanation:

    If the company don't do anything with defective fans, they still occurs manufacturing cost of $20,060 (=$59 * 340)

    (1) if the company sell defective units, operating income is - 12,240 or loss of $12,240 = (340*$23-$20,060)

    (2) if the company process further for a cost of $41 each and then sell for the normal selling price, the operating income is - 2,380 loss of $2,380 = 340 * ($93-$41) - $20,060

    So if the fans are repaired, the net increase in operation income is $9,860 = (-2,380 - (-12,240))
