An outside supplier has offered to make the part and sell it to the company for $27.60 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs can be avoided. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $3,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. In addition, the space used to produce part Q89 could be used to make more of one of the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $16,000 per year for that product.

Based on this information, would Recher be financially better off to continue making the Q89 or to buy them from the outside supplier?
