Explanation / Answer

the total cost of each employee is as follows:

salary = 2500 per month, benefits 35% on 2500, i.e.= 2500*0.35= $875, and maintanance cost is 2000 per month

per month cost per employee= 2500+875+2000= $5375

there are 4 workers, and total workers cost per month is= 5375*4= $21,500

per annum= 21,500*12= $258,000

the cost of superwisor= salary 3000 per month, the benefits= 3000*0.40= 1200 and other expenses are $500

total cost of superwisor per month= 3000+1200+500= $4700

per year= 4700*12= $56,400

the total cost of maintaining= $258,000+56,400= $314,400

Hence the outsourcing cost is $300,000 per annum, it is better to go with outsourcing only. (with this information, it is advised to go for outsourcing than maintaning)
