    The company's net operating income would increase by 2.1875%.

    Explanation:

    Let the selling price for each unit be $y

    Initial quantity sold per month before increase in the advertising budget = 6400 units

    Initial income = $6400y

    New monthly sales after increase in advertising budget = 6400 + 1400 = 6540 units

    New income = $6540y

    Increase in income = $6540y - $6400y = $140y

    Percentage increase in income = (increase in income : initial income) * 100 = ($140y : $6400) * 100 = 0.021875 * 100 = 2.1875%
