Costs                    $0        (3480*16) = -$55,680  -$55,680

Shipping               $0        (3480*1) = -3480           -$3,480  

Net income          $0         34,800                          $34,800

So, the net income that Bargain Electronics would realize by accepting the special order is $34,800.
