The choices facing the company are: Alternative 1: Rent new equipment and continue to make the drums. The equipment would be rented for $157,500 per year. Alternative 2: Purchase the drums from an outside supplier at $ 21 per drum. The new equipment would be more efficient than the equipment that Antilles Refining has been using and, according to the manufacturer, would reduce direct labor and variable overhead costs by 25%. The old equipment has no resale value. Supervision cost ($52,500 per year) and direct materials cost per drum would not be affected by the new equipment. The new equipment's capacity would be 105,000 drums per year. The company's total general company overhead would be unaffected by this decision.
