Lugobar Electronies has approached Msala Lid with an offer to make the electruaic component for $500=$ each. If Msata Lid accepts Lugoba's offer, their estimate they could cut their fixed manufacturing overhead by the following amounts:

i$)$ Supervisory salaries and fringe benefits $45,\frac{000}{?}=$

ii$)$ Heating and lighting costs $18,000=($as they would no longer use the section of the building in which the component is now being manufacturod$)-$

iii$)$ Depreciation $12,\frac{000}{?}($as they would stop using certain equipment, since there is no ready markel for it because of its age$).$

Note: the fixed factory overhead above is based on a volume of $5\mathrm{.}000$ units at $300N=$ each.
