4. ABC company wants to determine whether a component should be manufactured
in-house or outsourced. The following table gives related data.
In-house: Annual Fixed Cost, FIN = $80000
Variable cost/unit, VIN = $10
Out Source:
Annual Fixed Cost, FOU = $120,000
Variable cost/unit, VOU = $5
Find: a) Break Even Annual Demand
b) If annual demand is 10,000 units which option would you recomment? Explain.
At this demand level the total cost will be the same for both alternatives.
If actual forecasted demand is greater than 5000 units, then outsourcing
is cheaper. If the demand is less than 5000 units, it is cheaper to make
in-house.
For a given demand, you can also use the total cost to compare the
alternatives.
Total Cost = Annual Fixed cost + (Variable cost/unit) Demand.
