Question

The required volume of output to produce the motors will not require any incremental fixed overhead. Incremental variable overhead cost is $21 per motor. What is the effect on income if Derby decides to make the motors

Answer 1

Answer: Income will increase by $16 per unit

Explanation:

Your question isn't complete but the completed question was gotten online and would be used in answering the question accordingly.

The effect on income if Derby decides to make the motors will be calculated thus:

In-house:

Direct material = 38

Direct labor = 50

Overhead (Incremental) = 21

Total variable cost = 109

Outside:

Cost of supply = 125

Therefore, the income per unit will increase by (125 - 109) = 16.
