The company uses 17,000 of the components each year. The unit product cost of the component according to the company's cost accounting system is given as follows: Direct materials Direct labor Variable manufacturing overhead Fixed manufacturing overhead Unit product cost Assume that direct labor is a variable cost. Of the fixed manufacturing overhead, 70% is avoidable if the component were bought from the outside supplier.

If the component were bought, time would be freed up for use on another product that requires 4 minutes on this machine and that has a contribution margin of $7.00 per unit. When deciding whether to make or buy the component, what cost of making the component should be…
