Question

Transcribed Image Text:Crane Ranch Inc. has been manufacturing its own finials for its curtain rods. The company is currently operating at
100% of capacity, and variable manufacturing overhead is charged to production at the rate of 56% of direct labor cost.
The direct materials and direct labor cost per unit to make a pair of finials are $4 and $5, respectively. Normal
production is 31,100 curtain rods per year.
A supplier offers to make a pair of finials at a price of $13.30 per unit. If Crane Ranch accepts the supplier's offer, all
variable manufacturing costs will be eliminated, but the $47,500 of fixed manufacturing overhead currently being
charged to the finials will have to be absorbed by other products.
(a)
Prepare the incremental analysis for the decision to make or buy the finials. (Enter negative amounts using either
a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
