It sells an additional 1,200 units to Distribution. The unit variable cost in Manufacturing is $300 and annual fixed costs are $300,000. Manufacturing is located in a country with a 20 percent tax rate. Distribution can sell units that have had further processing for $1,200 each. In addition to what it pays Manufacturing, the variable costs in Distribution are $150 per unit. Annual fixed costs in Distribution are $360,000.
