Han Products manufactures 26,000 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 26,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $48.00 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 $683,800.

Calculate the per unit and total relevant cost for buying and making the product? (Round your Per Unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
