Han Products manufactures 30,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line

Accounting Apr 01, 2021

Han Products manufactures 30,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line. At this level of activity, the cost per unit for part S-6 is as follows:

 

 Direct materials$3.50Direct labour 9.50Variable overhead 2.50Fixed overhead 9.00Total cost per part$24.50

 

An outside supplier has offered to sell 26,500 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $22.00 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $84,000. However, Han Products has determined that 30% of the fixed overhead being applied to part S-6 will be avoided if part S-6 is purchased from the outside supplier.

 

Required:

1. What is the net dollar advantage or disadvantage of accepting the outside supplier's offer? (Round "Total costs" and final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Variable Manufacturing overhead 66,250 2.5 0  
Fixed manufacturing overhead 238,500 9 71,550  
Purchase Cost   24.5 583,000  
Revenue from Rented Space     -84,000  
Total 649,250   570,550 78,700
  Make   Buy  
  26,500 units Per unit Costs 26,500 units  
Particulars Amount ($)   Amount ($)  
         
Direct Material =26500*3.5 3.5 0  
Direct Labour =26500*9.5 9.5 0  
Variable Manufacturing overhead =26500*2.5 2.5 0  
Fixed manufacturing overhead =26500*9 9 =26500*9*30%  
Purchase Cost   =SUM(D7:D10) =26500*22  
Revenue from Rented Space     -84000  
Total =92750+251750+66250+238500   =71550+583000-84000 =649250-570550

 

So, there is an advantage of accepting the offer of $78,700. So, the offer should be accepted.
