Barber Manufacturing currently makes 2,000 units of gas-powered leaf blowers each year. However, the company has found a manufacturing company that can provide the blowers at a price of $14 each. The company is considering purchasing the blowers. If the company purchases the blower, the machine can be used to produce 5,000 units of another product that would generate a contribution of $2 per unit.
