Answer:
D) Net operating income would decline by $21,900 per year.
Explanation:
The malouf cooperation produces 7000 parts a year.
Production costs are as follows:
•Direct materials = $2.20
•Direct labor = $8.50
•Variable manufacturing overhead
= $1.30
•Supervisor’s salary =$5.80
•Depreciation of special equipment=$7.20
•Allocated general overhead=4.60
If the company decides to buy from an outside supplier, they would generate $25,000 per year by producing another product using the freed space.
They will also cut down expenses on variable costs, such as:
Supervisor's salary = $5.50
Direct materials = $2.20
Direct labor = $8.50
Variable manufacturing = $1.30
Total cost avoided per product= ($5.50+$2.20+$8.50+$1.30)
= $17.80 per product.
Since the supplier's price is $24.50 per product, the company would be at loss of ($17.80 - $24.50) $6.70 per product if they buy from the supplier.
Total loss per year would be=
-$6.70 * 7000 = -$46,900
(it's negative because it's at loss)
When we add -$46,900 with the $25,000 per year that would be generated if the the company buys from the outside supplier, we have:
-$46,900 + $25,000
= -$21,900
Hence, there would be a decline of $21,900 per year in the company's net operating income
