Oak, Inc. has decided to discontinue manufacturing its Quantum
model personal organizer. Currently the company has a number of
partially completed personal organizers on hand. The company has
spent $114 per unit to manufacture these organizers. To complete
each unit, costs of $13 for material and $17 for direct labor will
be incurred. In addition, $9 of variable overhead and $35 of
allocated fixed overhead (relating primarily to depreciation of
plant and equipment) will be added per unit.
If Oak, Inc., completes the organizers, it can sell them for $137
per unit. Another manufacturer is interested in purchasing the
partially completed organizers for $104 per unit and converting
them into inventory tracking devices.
Determine whether Oak should complete the personal organizers or
sell them in their current state.
