- Use the following to answer questions 4-5: Division A produces a part with the following characteristics: Capacity in Units Selling Price per Unit Variable Costs per Unit Fixed Costs per Unit 50,000 units $30 $18 $ 3 Division B, another division in the company, would like to buy this part from Division A. Division B is presently purchasing 4,000 parts from an outside source at $27 per unit. If Division A sells to Division B, $2 in variable costs can be avoided. 4. Suppose Division A is currently operating at capacity and can sell all of the units it produces on the outside market for its usual selling price. From the point of view of Division A, any sales to Division B should be priced no lower than which of the following? A) $30. $18. B) C) D) $29. $28. 5. Given the information in 4 above, what would the effect on the operating income of the company as a whole, if Division B continues to purchase all the parts from its outside source?

Division Y now purchases the part from an outside supplier at a price of $17 each. Suppose Division X has sufficient excess capacity to handle all of Division Y's needs without any increase in fixed costs and without cutting into sales to outside customers. If Division X refuses to accept the $17 price internally and Division Y continues to buy from the outside supplier, the company as a whole will be: better off by $60,000 each period.
