Sheffield’s manufacturing company can make 100 units of a necessary component part with the following costs: direct materials $122000 direct labor 34000 variable overhead 55000 fixed overhead 3 if sheffield’s manufacturing company can purchase the component externally for $2 and only $4000 of the fixed costs can be avoided, what is the correct make-or-buy decision?

Company Save  $37000 by Buying

Explanation:

given data

make component part = 100 units

Direct Materials = $122000

Direct Labor = 34000

Variable Overhead = 55000

Fixed Overhead = 30000

purchase the component = $200000

fixed costs = $4000

to find out

make or buy decision

solution

first we find here Total Cost for Making component part

total cost = Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Overhead + Fixed Overhead 1

put here value

total cost for make =  $122000 + 34000  + 55000 + 30000

total cost for make = $241000

and

now we find here Total Cost for buying component part

total cost = Purchase Price + fixed costs   2

put here value we get

total cost for buying = $200000 +  $4000

total cost for buying  = $204000

so

we can say Company Save =  $241000 -  $204000   = $37000 by Buying
