The SP Corporation makes 42,000 motors to be used in the production of its sewing machines. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is: Direct materials $ 10.10 Direct labor $ 9.10 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.75 Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70 An outside supplier recently began producing a comparable motor that could be used in the sewing machine. The price offered to SP Corporation for this motor is $25.75. If SP Corporation decides not to make the motors, there would be no other use for the production facilities and none of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost could be avoided.

Explanation:

Analysis of the Make or Buy Decision - Making

Making Costs

Direct materials $ 10.10×42,000                                424,200

Direct labor $ 9.10×42,000                                        382,200

Variable manufacturing overhead $ 3.75×42,000    157,500

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70×42,000         197,400

Total                                                                             1,161,300

Buying Costs

Purchase Price $25.75×42,000                                1,801,500

Fixed manufacturing overhead $ 4.70×42,000         197,400

Total                                                                            1,998,900

It costs $837,600 more to Buy than to make.

Hence the annual financial advantage for the company as a result of making the motors rather than buying them from the outside supplier would be $837,600.
