Assume a division of Hewlett-Packard currently makes 12,000 circuit boards per year used in producing diagnostic electronic inst

ruments at a cost of $34 per board, consisting of variable costs per unit of $24 and fixed costs per unit of $10.
Further assume Sanmina-SCI offers to sell Hewlett-Packard the 12,000 circuit boards for $34 each.
If Hewlett-Packard accepts this offer, the facilities currently used to make the boards could be rented to one of Hewlett-Packard's suppliers for $46,000 per year.
In addition, $6 per unit of the fixed overhead applied to the circuit boards would be totally eliminated.
Calculate the net benefit (cost) to HP of outsourcing the component from Samina-SCI.
(Use a negative sign with your answer, if appropriate.)

Answer:

The net benefit is -$26,000

Explanation:

Given the above information,

The total cost of manufacturing 12,000 circuit boards

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Total purchase price

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Fixed overhead cost applied

= 12,000 × $6

= $72,000

The rental income = $46,000

Outsourcing cost

= Total purchase price + Fixed overhead cost applied - Rental income

= $408,000 + $72,000 - $46,000

= $434,000

Therefore, Net benefit

= Total cost of manufacturing - Outsourcing cost

=$408,000 - $434,000

= -$26,000

You purchase a $30, nonrefundable ticket to a play at a local theater. Ten minutes into the show you realize that it is not a ve
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

1) You should go home and watch TV.

Explanation:

Since you value seeing the play $10, then you should leave the theater and go to your house to watch TV since that has a higher value for you ($12).

We are talking about opportunity costs here. Opportunity costs are the extra costs or benefits lost from choosing one activity or investment over another. In this case the opportunity costs are:

  • watch the play = $10
  • watch TV = $12
  • read a book = $8

Since watching TV is more valuable to you, then that is what you should be doing.
