Question
Sell or Process Further
Turner Manufacturing Company makes a partially completed assembly unit that it sells for $52 per unit. Normally, 37,000 units are sold each year. Variable unit cost data on the assembly are as follows:
The company is now using only 75% of its normal capacity; it could fully use its normal capacity by processing the assembly further and selling it for $60 per unit. If the company does this, material and labor costs will each increase by $2 per unit and variable overhead will go up by $1 per unit. Fixed costs will increase from the current level of $125,000 to $167,000.
Prepare an analysis showing whether Turner should process the assemblies further.
Use a negative sign with answer to only indicate an income loss from processing assemblies further; otherwise do not use negative signs with your answers.
