Hoboken Industries currently manufactures 39,000 units of part MR24 each month for use in production of several of its products. The facilities now used to produce part MR24 have a fixed monthly cost of $195,000 and a capacity to produce 88,500 units per month.

The variable production costs of part MR24 are $14 per unit.
