(a)

Do It! Review 7-3 (Part Level Submission)

Ayayai Company must decide whether to make or buy some of its components. The costs of producing 60,000 switches for its generators are as follows.
Direct materials $29,000 Variable overhead $44,000 Direct labor $25,000 Fixed overhead $76,000
Instead of making the switches at an average cost of $2.90 ($174,000 ÷ 60,000), the company has an opportunity to buy the switches at $2.65 per unit. If the company purchases the switches, all the variable costs and one-fourth of the fixed costs will be eliminated.
