Given :
Fresh Farm: $4.50 for 5 lbs
Fruit Garden: $1/5 for 1/3 lb
Mother Nature: $4 for 5 lbs
Country Market: $0.85 per pound
To Find :
Which store offers the lowest unit rate for cantaloupes, in dollars per pound.
Solution :
Dollar per pound of each store :
Fresh Farm : 4.50/5 = $0.9 per pound
Fruit Garden: (1/5)/(1/3) = $0.6 per pound
Mother Nature: 4/5 = $0.8 per pound
Country Market: $0.85 per pound
From above we can see that Fruit Garden offers lowest unit rate.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
Incremental cost of buying = $2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost per unit;
Direct materials = $10.30
Direct labor = $24.30
Overhead = $16.30
Total Overhead cost = 10.30 + 24.30 + 16.30
= $50.90
Where the item is purchased,
Total cost = $46.88 + (40% × 16.30)
= $46.88 + $6.52
= $53.40
Cost difference = $53.40 - $50.90
= $2.50
There is an incremental cost of buying. This amounts to $2.50
