Intercontinental's special order also requires 1,000 kilograms of genatope, a solid chemical regularly used in the company's products. The current stock of genatope is 8,000 kilograms at a book value of 8.10 p per kilogram. If the special order is accepted, the firm will be forced to restock genatope earlier than expected, at a predicted cost of 8.70 p per kilogram. Without the special order, the purchasing man- ager predicts that the price will be 8.30 p when normal restocking takes place. Any order of genatope must be in the amount of 5,000 kilograms. Required: 1. What is the relevant cost of genatope? 2. Discuss each of the figures in the exercise in terms of its relevance to the decision.
