6000 units of a part are needed every year. Currently, this part is manufactured internally. Each production run costs 500 dollars to set up. The part costs 5 dollars. The carrying cost is 10% per year. The company has the option of ordering this part from another company. This would increase the part's cost to 6 dollars, although the fixed cost of ordering would be low at 300 dollars per order.
