Division A manufactures electronic circuit boards. The boards can be sold either to Division B of the same company or to outside customers. Last year, the following activity occurred in Division A:

Selling price per circuit board	$	175
Variable cost per circuit board	$	111
Number of circuit boards:
Produced during the year		21,400
Sold to outside customers		15,400
Sold to Division B		6,000

Sales to Division B were at the same price as sales to outside customers. The circuit boards purchased by Division B were used in an electronic instrument manufactured by that division (one board per instrument). Division B incurred $270 in additional variable cost per instrument and then sold the instruments for $690 each.

Required:

1. Prepare income statements for Division A, Division B, and the company as a whole.

2. Assume Division As manufacturing capacity is 21,400 circuit boards. Next year, Division B wants to purchase 7,000 circuit boards from Division A rather than 6,000. (Circuit boards of this type are not available from outside sources.) From the standpoint of the company as a whole, should Division A sell the additional 1,000 circuit boards to Division B or continue to sell them to outside customers?
