Question

Han Products manufactures 25,000 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: An outside supplier has offered to sell 25,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $46.00 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 $746,500. 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. Calculate the per unit and total relevant cost for buying and making the product?
