Every year Riverbed Industries manufactures 7,300 units of part 231 for use in its production cycle. The per unit costs of part 231 are as follows: Direct materials   $ 5.00   Direct labor   11.00   Variable manufacturing overhead   6.00   Fixed manufacturing overhead   10.00   Total   $32.00   Ivanhoe, Inc., has offered to sell 7,300 units of part 231 to Riverbed for $34 per unit. If Riverbed accepts Ivanhoe’s offer, its freed-up facilities could be used to earn $10,500 in contribution margin by manufacturing part 240. In addition, Riverbed would eliminate 40% of the fixed overhead applied to part 231.(a) Calculate total relevant cost to make and net cost to buy. Total relevant cost to make $enter a dollar amount  Net relevant cost to buy $enter a dollar amount  (b) Should Riverbed accept Ivanhoe’s offer?
Slavin Corporation manufactures two products, Alpha and Delta. Each product requires time on a single machine. The machine has a monthly capacity of 500 hours. Total market demand for the two products is limited to 170 units (each) monthly. Slavin is currently producing 110 Alphas and 110 Deltas each month. Cost and machine-usage data for the two products are shown in the following table, which Slavin managers use for planning purposes.     Alpha Delta Total Price $ 125   $ 155         Less variable costs per unit                   Material   17     32         Labor   23     35         Overhead   14     14         Contribution margin per unit $ 71   $ 74         Fixed costs                   Manufacturing             $ 7,400   Marketing and administrative             $ 4,400                 $ 11,800   Machine hours per unit   2.0     2.5         Machine hours used               495   Machine hours available               500   Quantity produced   110…
Bordome Company produces component A1 for use in one of its electronic gadgets. Normal annual production for the item is 100,000 units. The cost for a 100-unit batch of the part are: Direct materials, P520; Direct labor, P200; Variable overhead, P240; Fixed overhead, P320. Isell Inc. has offered to sell all 100,000 units it will need during the coming year for P1,200 per 100 units. If Boredom accepts the offer, the facilities used to manufacture A1 could be used in the production of component B2. This change would save Boredome P180,000 in relevant costs. In addition, a P200,000 cost item included in fixed overhead is specifically related to A1 and would be eliminated. What is the net advantage of choosing the better alternative? Indicate the better alternative in CAPITAL LETTERS and amount, ex: MAKE 123456 or BUY 123456.
