Incremental Loss to Engine division(12,000*$700) $                        -84,00,000
Incremental benefit to Production division(12,000*$550) $                         66,00,000
Savings in selling expenses(12,000*$60) $                           7,20,000
Decrease in Profit $                        -10,80,000
So Option C which is a decrease of $1,080,000 is the answer
Note:
Incremental Loss per unit to Engine division =$1,750 - $1,050 =$700
Incremental benefit to Production division =$1,600 - $1,050 =$550
