Following is a list of costs that Sherri has compiled in relation to the trip. Identify which costs are relevant (R). _________ Annual straight line depreciation on the car _________ Cost of gasoline _________ Annual cost of auto insurance and license fee _________ Maintenance and repairs _________ Parking fees at home _________ Cost of train ticket _________ Reduction in resale value of car due to mileage used and wear and tear _________ Cost of putting dog in kennel while she is gone _________ Cost of parking car in Chicago 5. Austin LTD. Manufactures a component that is used in the fans it produces. A supplier has offered to supply the component for $25 per part. The annual requirements of Austin are 20,000 components. Austin's cost detail of manufacturing the component is as follows: per unit direct materials direct labor variable overhead depreciation of equipment supervisor's salary general factory overhead total $9 $5 $1 $3 $2 $10 $30 It was determined that the special equipment has no resale value and cannot be used for another process. The factory overhead is an allocation and would be unaffected by the decision. The costs above are based on the same 20,000 units that the supplier would supply. Should Austin continue to manufacture the component or purchase it from the outside supplier? (support your work with numbers). 6.
