Gelb Company currently manufactures 40,000 units per year of a key component for its manufacturing process. Variable costs are $1.95 per unit, fixed costs related to making this component are $65,000 per year, and allocated fixed costs are $58,500 per year. The allocated fixed costs are unavoidable whether the company makes or buys this component. The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.50 per unit. Should it continue to manufacture the component, or should it buy this component from the outside supplier?

Desert Industries manufactures 5,000 units of Part X300 each month for use in production. The facilities now being used to
produce Part X300 have fixed monthly overhead costs of $75,000, and a theoretical capacity to produce 7,000 units per month.
If Desert were to buy Part X300 from an outside supplier, the facilities would be idle and 80% of the fixed costs would continue
to be incurred. There are no alternative uses for the production facilities. The variable production costs of Part X300 are $34 per
unit. Fixed overhead is allocated based on planned production levels.
