q2 Exercise 13-11 (Algo) Make or Buy Decision [LO13-3]

Han Products manufactures 25,000 units of part S-6 each year for use on its production line. At this level of activity, the cost per unit for part S-6 is:

Direct materials	$ 3.90
Direct labor	8.00
Variable manufacturing overhead	2.10
Fixed manufacturing overhead	6.00
Total cost per part	$ 20.00

An outside supplier has offered to sell 25,000 units of part S-6 each year to Han Products for $18 per part. If Han Products accepts this offer, the facilities now being used to manufacture part S-6 could be rented to another company at an annual rental of $75,000. However, Han Products has determined that two-thirds of the fixed manufacturing overhead being applied to part S-6 would continue even if part S-6 were purchased from the outside supplier.

Required:

What is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of accepting the outside suppliers offer?
