"In my opinion, we ought to stop making our own drums and accept that outside supplier's offer," said Wim Niewindt, managing director of Antilles Refining. NV. of Aruba. At a price of 138 florins per drum, we would be paying 10 florins less than it costs us to manufacture the drums in our own plant (The currency in Aruba is the florin, denoted by Afl) Since we use 360,000 drums a year. we would save 3,600,000 florins on an annual basis. "Antiles Refining's present cost to manufacture one drum follows (based on 360,000 drums per year): A decision about whether to make or buy the drums is especlally important at this time, since the equipment being used to make the drums is completely worn out and must be replaced. The choices facing the company are as follows: - Alternative 1. Purchase new equipment and continue to make the drums. The equipment would cost All4,860,000, it would have a five-year useful life and no salvage value. The company uses straight-ine depreciation. - Altemative 2. Purchase the drums from an outside supplier at Afl38 per drum under a five-year contract. The new equipment would be more efficient than the equipment that Antiles Refining has been using and, according to the manufacture, would reduce direct labour and variable overhead costs by 30%. The old equipment has no resale value. Supervision cost (Afl6,660.000 per year) and direct materials cost per drum would not be affected by the new equipment. The new equipment's capacity would be 6,660,000 drums per year.
