A proposal is received from an outside supplier who will test, produce, and ship 1,000 units per month directly to EZ Stor’s customers as orders are received from EZ’s sales force. EZ Stor’s fixed and variable nonmanufacturing costs would be unaffected, but its variable manufacturing costs would be cut by 20 percent per unit for those 1,000 units shipped by the contractor. EZ Stor’s plant would operate at 80 percent of its normal level, and total fixed manufacturing costs per month would be cut by 10 percent. Should the proposal be accepted for a payment to the contractor of $38 per unit? (Revenue information is not needed to answer this question.)
