Harvey Automobiles uses a standard part in the manufacture of several of its trucks. The cost of producing 60,000 parts is $160,000, which includes fixed costs of $50,000 and variable costs of $110,000. The company can buy the part from an outside supplier for $3.00 per unit, and avoid 30% of the fixed costs. If Harvey Automobiles makes the part, how much will its operating income be?

Respuesta :

Answer:

$55,000

Explanation:

The computation of the change in operating income is shown below:

= Buying cost - making cost

where,

Buying cost = Cost of producing parts × outside supplier per unit

                    = 60,000 parts × $3

                    = $180,000

And, the making cost would be

= Variable cost + fixed cost × given percentage

= $110,000 + $50,000 × 30%

= $110,000 + $15,000

= $125,000

So, the operating income would be

= $180,000 - $125,000

= $55,000
