Rubble Company must decide whether to make or buy some of its compo- nents. The costs of producing 60,000 switches for its generators are as follows.
Â
Â
|
Direct materials |
$30,000 |
Variable overhead |
$45,000 |
|
Direct labor |
$42,000 |
Fixed overhead |
$60,000 |
Â
Instead of making the switches at an average cost of $2.95 ($177,000 4 60,000), the com- pany has an opportunity to buy the switches at $2.70 per unit. If the company purchases the switches, all the variable costs and one-fourth of the fixed costs will be eliminated.
Â
(a)Â Prepare an incremental analysis showing whether the company should make or buy the switches. (b) Would your answer be different if the released productive capacity will generate additional income of $34,000?
