(ID#13108)
An outside manufacturer, called GreatWheel, recently began producing a comparable tiny wheel that could be used in the Beautiful Product. The price
offered to RelyaTech Corporation to supply them with this tiny wheel is $26.95.
If RelyaTech Corporation decides not to make the wheels, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing
overhead cost could be avoided.
($87,400)
Direct labor is a variable cost in this company.
Q) What would be the annual financial advantage (disadvantage) for RelyaTech as a result of continuing to make the wheels rather than buying them from the
outside supplier?
