Question: LaSalle Manufacturing had always made its components in-house. However, Jasper Component Works had recently offered to supply one component, C-430, at a price of $13 each. LaSalle uses 4,900 units of Component C-430 each year. The cost per unit of this component is as follows: Direct materials $7.46 Direct labor 2.95 Variable overhead 1.83 Fixed overhead 4.00 Total $16.24 The fixed overhead is an allocated expense; none of it would be eliminated if production of Component C-430 stopped. Required: 1. List the relevant costs for each alternative. If required, round your answers to two decimal places.LaSalle Manufacturing had always made its components in-house.
