Suppose that you have access to the data on the efficiency and scrap rate of a packaging line for a product that your firm manufactures. If a package is defective, the material is not damaged and is repackaged accordingly. The standard and actual specifications are as follows:

Measure	Standard (%)	Actual (%)
Manufacturing Efficiency	90	72
Packaging Efficiency	90	75
Manufacturing Scrap Rate	1	1.5
Packaging Scrap Rate	1.5	3

Along with that data, you also have the cost breakdown of the product using the standard specifications, which is:

	Standard $ per Unit
Raw Material	$10.00
Packaging Material	$2.00
Labor-Manufacturing	$5.00
Labor-Packaging	$3.00
Overhead & Depreciation	$5.00

a. You sell this item for $45 each on the market. Use the information above to calculate the actual per unit cost of the product. Fill out the table below (round to the nearest cent):

b. If you continue to produce in house, your maintenance costs for the two lines averages $125 per month per line. You currently sell 2,500 units per year, which is forecasted to be stable. With this information in mind, complete the following table (round to the nearest cent):
