Harvey Automobiles uses a standard part in the manufacture of several of its trucks. The cost of producing 40,000 parts is $130,000, which includes fixed costs of $70,000 and variable costs of $60,000. The company can buy the part from an outside supplier for $3 per unit, and avoid 30% of the fixed costs.
