Speedy Sloth Toys Company manufactures and sells 10,000 units of
its Dream Lite Pillow per year. Total production costs for making
10,000 pillows are as follows:
Direct materials
$40,000
Direct labor $10,000
Variable manufacturing overhead costs
$30,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead costs $30,000
Total costs $110,000
Speedy Sloth Company has the option of purchasing 10,000 pillows
from an outside supplier at $9.00 per unit. It is estimated that
15% of the fixed manufacturing overhead costs will no longer occur
if the company purchases the pillows from the outside supplier.
If Speedy Sloth Company stops making the 10,000 pillows, and
instead starts purchasing the 10,000 pillows from the outside
supplier, what would be the impact on Speedy Sloth's net operating
income?
Net operating income would decrease by $7,000.
Net operating income would increase by $15,500.
Net operating income would increase by $20,000.
Net operating income would decrease by $5,500.
