Question 4 Annex Division of Carlyle Co. Ltd produces electric motors, 25% of which are sold to Crossway Division of Carlyle. The remainder are sold to outside customers. Carlyle treats its divisions as prolit centres and allows division managers to choose their sources of sale and supply.

Annex Division's estimated sales and standard cost data for the year ending 31 December 2003, based on capacity of 50,000 units, are as follows: Variable costs Fixed costs Gross margin Unit sales . Crossway Outsiders $450,000 $4,000,000 ($450,000) ($1,800,000) (S150,000) (600,000) ($150,000) $1,600,000 40,000 10,000 Annex has an opportunity to sell the 10,000 units shown above to an outside customer at a price of $75 per unit.
