A service company is considering whether or not it should outsource its delivery services. The service company employs 400 workers at an average annual wage of $22,000 plus another 39% for fringe benefits. Annual fixed costs associated with delivery services are $1,500,000. A transportation company will provide similar services for a fixed annual cost of $7,500,000 plus a variable cost of $21,000 per employee required. The transportation company would need only 90% of the current employees at the service company. What are the annual costs of using its current staff at the service company and transportation company? What would your final decision be for the service company?

Consider the information given below.   Output Inputs 335,000 units 6,400 labor hours @ $14.00 per hour Sales price = $1,301.00/unit Material cost = $41,250,000   Utilities cost = $4,600   Calculate the single factor productivities and the total productivity. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to two decimal places. Labor productivity:  $/labor$ Material productivity:  $/material$ Utilities productivity:  $/utility$ Total productivity:  $/input$
