Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Total incremental cost of Making = $370,800 and Buying = $378,400.

Decision : The company should continue to manufacture the part instead of  buying the part from the outside supplier

Explanation:

<u>Analysis of the Buy or Decision</u>

                                                                      Buy       Make     Difference

Costs :

Purchase Price ( $4.30 × 88,000 units)  $378,400     $ 0      ($378,400)

Savings :

Variable Costs ($3.10 × 88,000 units )        $0      $272,800   $272,800

Fixed Cost                                                     $0       $98,000      $98,000

Total                                                         $378,400 $370,800     ($7,600)

<em>Note that, Allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys the part thus not relevant for this decision.</em>

Conclusion :

It can be seen that it is quite expensive to buy the part from the outside supplier, so continue making the part internally
