Delta Products has determined the following costs:
Order processing (per order)
$6
Additional handling costs if order marked rush (per order)
$12
Customer service call (per call)
$12
Relationship management costs (per customer per year)

In addition to these costs, product costs amount to 83 percent of sales. In the prior year, Delta had the following experience with one of its customers, Johnson Brands:
Sales
$54,400
Number of orders
260
percent of orders marked rush
70%
Calls to customer service
167
For the coming year, Delta Products has told Johnson Brands that it will be switched to an activity-based pricing system or it will be dropped as a customer. In addition to regular prices, Johnson will be required to pay:
Order processing (per order)
$7
Additional handling costs if order marked rush (per order)
$14
Customer service calls (per call)
$17
Calculate the profitability of the Johnson Brands account if activity is the same as in the prior year. (Enter loss using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
