Canyon Trails is studying whether to outsource its Human Resources (H/R) activities. Salaried professionals who earn $390,000 would be terminated; in contrast, administrative assistants who earn $120,000 would be transferred elsewhere in the organization. Miscellaneous departmental overhead (e.g., supplies, copy charges, overnight delivery) is expected to decrease by $30,000, and $25,000 of corporate overhead, previously allocated to Human Resources, would be allocated to other departments.

If Canyon Trails can secure needed H/R services locally for $410,000, how much would the company benefit by outsourcing?
