Ortega Industries manufactures 19,900 components per year. The manufacturing cost of the components was determined to be as follows: Direct materials$178,000 Direct labor 380,000 Variable manufacturing overhead 104,000 Fixed manufacturing overhead 260,000 Total$922,000 Assume that the fixed manufacturing overhead reflects the cost of Ortega's manufacturing facility. This facility cannot be used for any other purpose. An outside supplier has offered to sell the component to Ortega for $34. If Ortega Industries purchases the component from the outside supplier, the effect on operating profits would be a:

Increased profit as opposed to making them internally.

Explanation:

Make or buy decisions are management decisions as to whether production components should be produced internally or outsourced.

Buy decision

Unit price= $34

Total unites= 19900

Total cost= $34*19900=$676,600

Make decision

$

Direct materials 178,000

Direct Labor. 380,000

Variable overhead. 104,000

Relevant fixed overhead 260,000

Total $922,000

Unit price for make=922000/19900

Unit price=$46.33

Since buying outside is more cheaper than producing internally, it will be more profitable to outsource(buy).
