Case Study:

Description Cost per Month
Direct Materials $75,000
Direct Labor $100,000
Total $175,000
In addition, variable factory overhead is applied at $7.50 per unit. Fixed factory overhead is applied at 150% of direct labor cost per unit. The vacuums sell for $150 each. A third party has offered to make the engines for $60 per unit. 75% of fixed factory overhead, which represents executive salaries, rent, depreciation, and taxes, continue regardless of the decision. Should the company make or buy the engines?
