Zion Manufacturing had always made its components in-house. However, Bryce Component Works had recently offered to supply one component, K2, at a price of $12 each. Zion uses 4,800 units of Component K2 each year. The cost per unit of this component is as follows:

Direct materials $7.36

Direct labor 2.66

Variable overhead 1.15

Fixed overhead 4.00

Total $15.17

The fixed overhead is an allocated expense; none of it would be eliminated if production of Component K2 stopped. List the relevant costs for each alternative.

Scientists developed the first successful human cell culture in vitro (grown in a lab) in the 1950s by removing cancer cells from a woman. this concept has allowed modern scientists to successfully grow organs. which of the following answers  bestdetermines why there was success?   neurons send a signal to the cell to multiply. a large blood supply to the cell allows enough nutrients for growth. cells are the basic unit of life and thus can regenerate if in a controlled environment. cells cannot reproduce on their own, and the scientist manipulates them to grow.
