Answer:

Change in operating income= $28,620

Explanation:

                                                                                        $

Total variable cost of making                                   70,000

Total cost of external purchase ($4.62×26,000)   120,120

Extra variable cost from external purchase             50,120

less Savings in fixed overheads(50%×43,000)       ( 21,500)                            

Change in operating income                                        28,620  

                 

Note that the the balance of the fixed cost (50% of $43,000= 21500) were not included because they not relevant for the decision. They would be incurred either way.
