Ответ:
The offer will increase the value of the company.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Materials cost $10 per unit
Labor cost $9 per unit
Manufacturing supplies $1.50
Batch-level costs $2,000
Sunny Motels has offered to buy a batch of 500 blankets for $23.50 each.
Because it is a special offer, we will not have into account the fixed costs:
Unitary cost=10 + 9 + 1.5 + (2,000/1,000)= $22.5
If the contribution margin is positive, the special offer should be accepted:
CM= selling price - unitary variable cost
CM= 23.5 - 22.5= $1
The offer will increase the value of the company.
