Fixed expenses are $910,000 per month. The company is selling 7,000 units. The marketing manager believes that a $65,000 increase in the monthly advertising budget would result in an 8% increase in monthly sales. What is the change on the company's monthly net operating income of this change?

| Contribution Margin | 7,000*$175 = $1,225,000 | (7,000*108%)*$175 = $1,323,000 | 
| Less: Fixed expenses | $ 910,000 | $910,000+$65,000 = $975,000 | 
| Operating income | $ 315,000 | $ 348,000 |
