Answer: Option A

 

Explanation: In simple words, elasticity refers to the change in demand for a product due to change in its price.

Wintertime Company produces the handles which are used in the production of their snow shovels. Wintertime’s costs to produce 60
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

There will be 15,000 increase in net income for purchasing the handles from outside supplier as it saves us a cost of 15,000

Cost of manufacturing 60,000 handles = $150,000

If the company purchases it from outside = 2.25 per handle  x 60,000 handles  = $135,000

fixed factory overheads of $ 25,000 will be still there as additional cost

Additional rental income = 25,000

Outsourcing handles = cost to purchase + fixed factory overhead - rental income

Outsourcing handles = 135,000 + 25,000 - 25,000

Outsourcing handles = 135,000

Net Income effect = Cost of manufacturing - Cost to outsouce

Net income effect = 150,000 - 135,000

Net income effect = 15,000 increase
