Jones Company has the following data to make 10,000 seats for its bicycles: Variable Product Costs 80,000 Fixed Product Costs 10
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The company should make the bicycle seats.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of seats to be made = 10,000

Variable cost = 80,000

Fixed cost = 10,000

Outside source cost for seats = $ 8.50 per seat

Since, the fixed cost of the seats cannot be eliminated. Therefore, the deciding factor will only be the variable cost.

Thus,

contribution margin per unit seat if made by own

= ( Variable cost / Number of seats )

Or

= 80,000 / 10,000

or

= $ 8

now,

the making the seats by own is $ 0.5 cheaper.

Hence, the company should make the bicycle seats.
