c. worse off by $28,600 each period.

The $28,600 loss the company incurs is from the lost contribution that Division Y's purchase of Division X's parts could have brought to the company if it buys parts inhouse.  This is calculated as follows:

Division X's variable cost per unit = $17

Division X's selling price to outside customers = $23

Division Y's offered buying price = $19

The contribution = $2 ($19 - $17)

Can someone please help mee
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

$1,467.88

Explanation:

Net pay is the amount one receives after subtracting deductions from the gross pay. Therefore, net pay is the gross pay minus all the deductions such as social security, federal and state taxes.

In this case, the gross pay is $1,828. The total taxes are $ 360.12.

The net pay will be $1,828 -360.12.

= $1,467.88
