<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

<u>Part a: </u>                                                                            

Revenue  5000 multiply 6.6   33000            

Unit Level Variable Cost:        

Material Cost  5000 multiply 2.7   -13500    

Labor Cost  5000 multiply 1.2   -6000    

Manufacturing Cost  5000 multiply 1.2   -6000    

Shipping and Handling  5000 multiply 0.3   -1500    

Sales Commission    0    

Contribution Margin    6000            

Should be accepted as it will increase profitability by $6000          

Part b1&b2:                                 Cost to Make  Cost to Buy          

Material Cost                40000*2.7  108000      

Labor Cost                40000*1.2  48000      

Manufacturing Cost  40000*1.2  48000      

Prod Supervisor Salary             72000      

Purchase Cost  40000*6.72               0  268800          

Total Cost                               276000  268800          

Should purchase from outside as cost is lower than making it      

Part b3:        

                                          Cost to Make  Cost to Buy            

Material Cost  60000 multiply 2.7     162000      

Labor Cost  60000 multiply1.2             72000      

Manufacturing Cost  60000*1.2  72000      

Prod Supervisor Salary             72000        72000    

Purchase Cost  60000*6.72              0           403200            

Total Cost                             378000        475200            

Should make in house as cost is lower            

Part c:  It should not be eliminated.              

Elimination will decrease profitability by $72000 which is being allocated company wide facility exp.  Before Allocation, actual profit is (168000-24000-72000)=$72000    

Loss is because of allocation of facility expenese, which will be allocated on other segment.
