Please show work and explanation.

Part SOO is used in one of Morsey Corporation's products. The company makes 6,000 units of this part each year. The company's Accounting Department reports the following costs of producing the part at this level of activity: An outside supplier has offered to produce this part and sell it to the company for $16.10 each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs, including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer were accepted, only $6,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided. If management decides to buy part SOO from the outside supplier rather than to continue making the part, what would be the annual impact on the company's overall net operating income?

Explanation / Answer

Calculation of Savings in expenses if Part is purchased

Variable cost (11x6000) 66000

Super visor's salary(3.60x6000) 21600

Allocated overhead 6000

Total savings 93600

Cost to be incurred for purchase 6000x16.10 = 96600

Additional cost = 96600-93600 = 3000

Net operating income will decrease if company purchases the part from outsider supplier.
