Futura Company purchases the $70,000$ starters that it installs in its standard line of farm tractors from a supplier for the price of $$13\mathrm{.}20$

per unit. Due to a reduction in output, the company now has idle capacity that could be used to produce the starters rather than

buying them from an outside supplier. However, the company's chief engineer is opposed to making the starters because the

production cost per unit is $$14\mathrm{.}20$ as shown below:

If Futura decides to make the starters, a supervisor would have to be hired $($at a salary of $$105,000)$ to oversee production. However,

the company has sufficient idle tools and machinery such that no new equipment would have to be purchased. The rent charge above

is based on space utilized in the plant and can't be avoided. The total rent on the plant is $$88,000$ per period. Depreciation is due to

obsolescence rather than wear and tear.

Required:

What would be the total financial impact of making the $70,000$ starters instead of buying them from an outside supplier? $($Indicate

negative cash flows with a negative sign.$)($Hint: In all of the make$-$or$-$buy questions, be sure to account for what they would have to

pay the supplier to make the products for them.$)$
