Acme Company plans to outsource production of a component part that it currently produces in$-$house. At the budgeted annual production level of $1,000$ units, Acme's per$-$unit manufacturing costs for the part are as follows: direct materials $$105,$ direct labor $$65,$ variable overhead $$23,$ and fixed overhead $$50.$ Producing one unit of the part in$-$house requires $4$ hours of machine time. If Acme buys the part from an outside supplier, Acme will avoid $30\%$ of the fixed overhead costs and Acme can use the freed$-$up machine time to manufacture another product that requires $8$ hours of machine time pe unit to produce and has a contribution margin of $$250$ per unit. What is the maximum per$-$unit purchase price that Acme can pay the outside supplier and break even on this outsourcing decision?
