Question No. 1. A firm is evaluating the alternative of manufacturing a part that is currently being outsourced from a supplier. The relevant information is provided below: For in-house manufacturing, using this information, determine the break-even quantity for which the firm would be indifferent between manufacturing the part in-house or outsourcing it. Given: Annual fixed cost = P2,250,000.00 Variable cost per part = P7,000.00 For purchasing from supplier Purchase price per part = P8,000.00 Question No. 2. In relation to the previous question answer the following: If demand is forecast to be greater than 2,500 parts, should the firm make the part in-house or purchase it from a supplier? The marketing department forecasts that the upcoming year’s demand will be 2,500 units. A new supplier offers to make parts for P7,500.00 each. Should the company accept the offer?

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: Direct materials $ 5.10 Direct labor 7.00 Variable manufacturing overhead 2.40 Fixed manufacturing 18.00 overhead 32.50 Total cost per part An outside supplier has offered to sell 30,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $46.50 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 $767,000. However, Han Products has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier.

The total cost C for a manufacturer during a given time period is a function of the number N of items produced during that period. To determine a formula for the total cost, we need to know two things. The first is the manufacturer's fixed costs. This amount covers expenses such as plant maintenance and insurance, and it is the same no matter how many items are produced. The second thing we need to know is the cost for each unit produced, which is called the variable cost.The total revenue R for a manufacturer during a given time period is a function of the number N of items produced during that period. The profit P for a manufacturer is the total revenue minus the total cost. If the profit is zero, then the manufacturer is at a break-even point.In general, the highest price p per unit of an item at which a manufacturer can sell N items is not constant but is, rather, a function of N. Suppose the manufacturer of widgets has developed the following table showing the highest price p, in…
