X Company is considering buying a part next year that they currently make. This year's production costs for 3,200 units were:

	Total	Per-Unit
Materials	$8,512	$2.66
Direct labor [all variable]	15,936	4.98
Variable overhead	10,880	3.40
Fixed overhead	9,920	3.10
Totals	$45,248	$14.14

A company has offered to supply this part for $13.38 per unit. If X Company buys the part, $4,960 of the fixed overhead can be avoided. Also if X Company buys the part, it can use the freed-up resources to increase production of another product, resulting in additional contribution margin of $2,700. Production next year is also expected to be 3,200 units.
