Model A20 box have increased significantly to a total of 430,000 A20 boxes. Hamilton
has enough existing production capacity to make all of the boxes it needs. The variable
cost of making each A20 box is $0.80. By outsourcing the manufacture of these A20

What is the maximum Hamilton will pay per Model A20 box to outsource production
of this box?

A retailer has offered to purchase 20,000 oil filters for $1.55 per filter. Of the total manufacturing cost per filter of $2.10, $1.30 is the variable manufacturing cost per filter. For this special order, Shilling would have to buy a special stamping machine that costs $8,000 to mark the customer's logo on the special order oil filters. The machine would be scrapped when the special order is complete. This special order would use manufacturing capacity that would other- wise be idle. No variable nonmanufacturing costs would be incurred by the special order. Regular sales would not be affected by the special order.
