- A global manufacturer of electrical switching equipment (ESE) is considering outsourcing the manufacturing of an electrical breaker used in the manufacturing of switch boards. The company estimates that the annual fixed cost of manufacturing the part in-house, which includes equipment, maintenance, and management, amounts to $8 million. The variable cost of labor and materials are $11.00 per breaker. The company has an offer from a major subcontractor to produce the part for $16.00 per breaker.a. How many breakers would the electrical switching equipment company need per year to make the in-house option the least costly?b. Assume the subcontractor wants the company to share in the costs of the equipment. The ESE company estimates that the total annual cost would be $5 million, which also includes management oversight for the new supply contract. For this concession, the subcontractor will drop the per-unit price to $12.00. Under this assumption, how many breakers would the ESE company…Leith Tramways Limited has a Castings Division which does casting work of various types. The company's Machine Products Division has asked the Castings Division to provide it with 20,000 special castings each year on a continuing basis. The special casting would require £10 per unit in variable production costs. The Machine Products Division has a bid from an outside supplier for the castings of £29 per unit. In order to have time and space to produce the new casting, the Castings Division would have to cut back production of another casting - the TramMode which it presently is producing. The TramMode sells for £30 per unit, and requires £12 per unit in variable production costs. Boxing and shipping costs of the TramMode are £4 per unit. Boxing and shipping costs for the new special casting would be only £1 per unit. The company is now producing and selling 100,000 units of the TramMode each year. Production and sales of this casting would drop by 20% if the new casting is produced.…Scottish Souvenirs Company has a Sewing Division that does sewing work of various types.

The special silk scarf would require £28 per unit in variable production costs. The Overseas Division has a bid from an outside supplier for the special silk scarf at £44.00 per unit. In order to have time and space to produce the new special silk scarf, the Sewing Division would have to cut back production of another scarf - the Classic- which it presently is producing. The Classic scarf sells for £30 per unit, and requires £22 per unit in variable production costs. Boxing and shipping costs of the Classic scarf are £4 per unit. Boxing and shipping costs of £7 per unit (special silk scarf) will also be incurred on internal transfers. The company is now producing and selling 100,000 units of the Classic scarf each year. Production and sales of the Classic…
