Melbourne Corporation has traditionally made a subcomponent of its major product. Annual production of 30,000 subcomponents results in the following costs: Direct materials $ 250,000 Direct labor $ 200,000 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 190,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 120,000 Melbourne has received an offer from an outside supplier who is willing to provide the 30,000 units of the subcomponent each year at a price of $28 per unit. Melbourne knows that the facilities now being used to manufacture the subcomponent could be rented to another company for $80,000 per year if the subcomponent were purchased from the outside supplier. There would be no effect of this decision on the total fixed manufacturing overhead of the company. Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. At what price per unit charged by the outside supplier would Melbourne be indifferent between making or buying the subcomponent?
A. $29 per unit
B. $25 per unit
C. $21 per unit
D. $24 per unit
The Bharu Violin Corporation has the capacity to manufacture and sell 5,000 violins each year but is currently only manufacturing and selling 4,800. The following data relate to annual operations at 4,800 units: Per Violin Selling price $ 600 Manufacturing costs: Variable $ 130 Fixed $ 270 Selling and administrative costs: Variable $ 20 Fixed $ 40 Woolgar Symphony Orchestra is interested in purchasing Bharu's excess capacity of 200 units but only if they can get the violins for $350 each. This special order would not affect regular sales or the total fixed costs. Assume that Bharu is manufacturing and selling at capacity (5,000 units). Any special order will mean a loss of regular sales. Under these conditions if the special order from Woolgar Symphony Orchestra is accepted, the financial advantage (disadvantage) Bharu for the year should be:
A. $20,000
B. $(22,000)
C. $(28,000)
