Sufficient car brake linings can be manufactured from each m to wholesale at $300. Required: (a) Should AB Company process the brake lining sheeting into finished brake linings? Explain with calculations. (4 marks) (b) If intemal transfers were made at 120% of variable cost, would each division be motivated to adopt the action which is optimal for AB Company?
