An outside supplier has offered to sell 24,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $48.50 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $696,600. However, HanProducts has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier. |
