Han Products manufactures 32,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line. At this level of activity, the cost per unit for part S-6 is:

Direct materials	$ 3.60
Direct labor	9.00
Variable manufacturing overhead	2.40
Fixed manufacturing overhead	6.00
Total cost per part	$ 21.00

An outside supplier has offered to sell 32,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $19 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $82,000. However, Han Products has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier.
