Troy Engines, Ltd., manufactures a variety of engines for use in heavy equipment. The company has always produced all of the necessary parts for its engines, including all of the carburetors. An outside supplier has offered to sell one type of carburetor to Troy Engines, Ltd., for a cost of $36 per unit. To evaluate this offer, Troy Engines, Ltd., has gathered the following information relating to its own cost of producing the carburetor internally:
Per Unit 20,000 Units Per Year
Direct materials $17 $340,000
Direct labor 10 200,000
Variable manufacturing overhead 2 40,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead, traceable 9 180,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead, allocated 12 240,000
Total cost $50 604,000

c. Suppose that if the carburetors were purchased, Troy Engines, Ltd., could use the freed capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $170,000 per year.
