Pharoah Company must decide whether to make or buy some of its components. The costs of producing 60,500 switches for its generators are as follows. Direct materials $29,600 Variable overhead $44,400 Direct labor $21,480 Fixed overhead $83,600 Instead of making the switches at an average cost of $2.96 ($179,080 + 60,500), the company has an opportunity to buy the switches at $2.70 per unit. If the company purchases the switches, all the variable costs and one-fourth of the fixed costs will be eliminated. (a) Your answer has been saved. See score details after the due date.
