Answer:

c. $600,000 vs. $528,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the relevant cost of make & buy is given below:

Total relevant cost of making the product is

= (cost per unit - unavoidable fixed cost per unit ) × 20,000 units

= ($34 - $4 ) × 20,000 units

= $600,000.

And, Total relevant cost of buying is

= (cost of buy per unit × 20,000 units ) - Contribution sale of water filtration = ( $28 × 20,000 units ) - ($80,000 - 60% of $80,000)

= $528,000

hence, the option c is correct
