Agler Corporation currently manufactures a sub assembly for its main product. The costs per unit are as follows: Direct materials 1
Direct labor 10
Variable overhead 5
Fixed overhead 8
Total $ 24
Funkhouser Company has contacted Agler with an offer to sell it 4,000 of the sub assemblies for $17 each. If Agler buys the sub assemblies, $2 of the fixed overhead per unit will be allocated to other products.
Should Agler make or buy the sub assemblies?

they should buy the sub assemblies

Explanation:

The costs per unit are as follows:

offer from an outside vendor = $17 per unit

non-avoidable fixed costs = $8 - $2 = $6

                              alternative 1                alternative 2          differential

                              keep producing          purchase               amount

purchase cost                        $0                     $17                     $17

avoidable costs                     $18                     $0                    ($18)

total                                        $18                    $17                      ($1)

if the company decides to purchase the parts from an outside vendor it will save $1 per unit.

there's 11 people for the 1st position. then, no matter who gets it, there's only 10 left for the second, and then 9 left for the third. 11 x 10 x 9 = 990.   the answer is there are 990 different ways the positions can be filled by these applicants
