Lusk
Corporation produces and sells 15,700 units of Product X each month. The
selling price of Product X is $27 per unit, and variable expenses are $21 per
unit. A study has been made concerning whether Product X should be
discontinued. The study shows that $72,000 of the $107,000 in fixed expenses
charged to Product X would not be avoidable even if the product was
discontinued. If Product X is discontinued, the company’s overall net
operating income would:
|
decrease
by $59,200 per month
increase
by $12,800 per month
increase
by $47,800 per month
decrease
by $47,800 per month

Barrus
Corporation makes 38,000 motors to be used in the productions of its power
lawn mowers. The average cost per motor at this level of activity is as
follows:
|
Direct materials
|
$9.70
|
Direct labor
|
$8.70
|
Variable manufacturing
overhead
|
$3.55
|
Fixed manufacturing
overhead
|
$4.50
|
This motor
has recently become available from an outside supplier for $24.55 per motor.
If Barrus decides not to make the motors, none of the fixed manufacturing
overhead would be avoidable and there would be no other use for the
facilities. If Barrus decides to continue making the motor, how much higher
or lower will the company’s net operating income be than if the motors are
purchased from the outside supplier? Assume that direct labor is a variable
cost in this company.
