Marigold Company must decide whether to make or buy some of its components. The costs of producing 60,200 switches for its generators are as follows.

Direct materials		$29,500		Variable overhead		$45,600
Direct labor		$25,900		Fixed overhead		$79,600

Instead of making the switches at an average cost of $3.00 ($180,600 60,200), the company has an opportunity to buy the switches at $2.74 per unit. If the company purchases the switches, all the variable costs and one-fourth of the fixed costs will be eliminated.

Prepare an incremental analysis showing whether the company should make or buy the switches. (If amount decreases net income then enter the amount using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
