A company manufactures a subcomponent of an assembly for $80 per unit, including fixed costs of $25 per unit. A proposal is offered to purchase the subcomponent from an outside source for $60 per unit, plus $5 per unit freight. Prepare a differential analysis to determine whether the company should make (Alternative 1) or buy (Alternative 2) the subcomponent, assuming fixed costs are unaffected by the decision.
A manager is trying to decide whether to purchase a certain part or to have it produce internally. Internal production could use either of two processes. One would entail a variable cost of P17 per unit and an annual fixed cost of P200,000, the other would entail a variable cost of P14 per unit and an annual fixed cost of 240,000. Three vendors are willing to provide the part. Vendor A has a price of P20 per unit for any volume up to 30,000 units. Vendor B has a price of P22 per unit for demand of 1,000 units less, and P18 per unit for larger quantities. Vendor C offers a price of P21 per unit for the first 1,000 units, and P19 per unit for additional units. Required: If the manager anticipates an annual volume of 10,000 units, which alternative would be best from a cost standpoint?
A Production Company can produce a product for $80 per unit. The investment per unit in equipment is $40, in labor is $25, in raw material is $10, and in fixed overhead is $5. Delta can purchase the product from Belton Industrial for $76. When Delta buys the product, they still have a $20 cost of equipment. At what demand level should Delta outsource the production of the product and buy it? Should they outsource the production at all? (Show your analysis by working out the problem.)
Wheeler Company can produce a product that incurs the following costs per unit: direct materials, $10.50; direct labor, $24.50, and incremental overhead, $9.30. An outside supplier has offered to sell the product to Wheeler for $47.60. Compute the net incremental cost or savings of buying.
Meg's Manufacturing Company can make 211 units of a component part for variable costs of $159,896 and fixed costs of $32,104. The compnay decides the buy the part externally instead for $153,734 and $4,789 of the fixed costs will be avoided. How much will net income increase or decrease? If net income increases, make your answer positive; If net income decreases, put a (-) negative sign in front of the answer. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar and do not type the dollar sign.
Crane Industries incurs unit costs of $6 ($4 variable and $2 fixed) in making an assembly part for its finished product. A supplier offers to make 13,500 of the assembly part at $5 per unit.

Carmen Co. can further process Product J to produce Product D. Product J is currently selling for $20 per pound and costs $15.75 per pound to produce. Product D would sell for $38 per pound and would require an additional cost of $8.55 per pound to produce. How do we calculate the differential cost of producing Product D?
Yes Co. has the option to either further process product Y to produce Product Z. The selling price of product Y is $30 per unit and it costs $28 to produce each unit of product Y. Product Z would be sold for $55 and would require an additional $31 cost for production. What is the differential cost to produce product Z? a. $3 per unit b. $28 per unit c. $31 per unit d. $25 per unit
Pharoah Company has decided to introduce a new product. The new product can be manufactured by either a capital-intensive method or a labor-intensive method. The manufacturing method will not affect the quality of the product. The estimated manufacturing costs by the two methods are as follows. Direct materials Direct labor Variable overhead Fixed manufacturing costs (a) Pharoah' market research department has recommended an introductory unit sales price of $28.00. The selling expenses are estimated to be $432,000 annually plus $2.00 for each unit sold, regardless of manufacturing method. Capital-Intensive $4.00 per unit $5.00 per unit $3.00 per unit $2,284,000 Calculate the estimated break-even point in annual unit sales of the new product if Pharoah Company uses the: 1. Capital-intensive manufacturing method. Labor-intensive manufacturing method. 2. Labor-Intensive $4.50 per unit $7.00 per unit $4.00 per unit $1,437,000 Break-even point in units Capital-Intensive Labor-Intensive
Chade Corp. is considering a special order brought to it by a new client.
