Answer: $2,720

Step-by-step explanation:

Total materials handling cost for specialty windows = Proportion of total units * Total materials handling cost

Proportion of total units = Specialty units / (Specialty windows + Wall mirrors)

= 6,000 / (6,000 + 9,000)

= 0.4

Total material handling cost for specialty windows = 0.4 * 6,800

= $2,720
