Explanation:
The Parton Company has a 'make or buy' decision. This decision involves analysing the incremental costs associated with each option. Incremental costs are costs incurred as a result of producing one more unit of a product. If the excess capacity can be utilised to produce the headlights at a lower cost than the cost of acquiring the headlights from an external supplier, then the company should produce the headlights.
The Parton Company incurs $12.80 per headlight purchased from the external supplier. Added to this cost, are the existing costs of operating below plant capacity. If making the headlights in the manufacturing plant yields a positive contribution to fixed costs, then the Parton company should produce the headlights in the manufacturing plant.
By producing the headlights, the Parton company gains a contribution to fixed costs of $1.03 per headlight.
Foregone purchase costs from supplier: $12.80
Incurred costs (directly) from production: ($11.77)
Direct materials ($4.45)
Direct Labour ($3.45)
Manufacturing Overheads: $(6.45*0.6) <u>($3.87)</u>
Net gain per headlight <u> </u><u>$1.03</u>

In this case, a factor other than price, the expectations of farmers (they are expectations because the lower prices have not materialized) has increased the supply of soybeans, causing a rightward shift of the supply curve of that good.
