Question

Han Products manufactures 29,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line. At this level of activity, the cost per unit for part S-6 is:

   

                       

Direct materials          $          4.00

Direct labor                7.00

Variable manufacturing overhead                    2.30

Fixed manufacturing overhead            12.00

           

Total cost per part      $          25.30

           

  

An outside supplier has offered to sell 29,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $41.50 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $712,800. However, Han Products has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier.
