Question - Vista Company manufactures electronic equipment. In 2018, it purchased from an outside supplier the special switches used in each of its products. The supplier charged Vista $2.5 per switch. As an alternative, Vista's CEO considered purchasing either machine A or machine B so the company could manufacture its own switches. The CEO decided at the beginning of 2019 to purchase machine A, based on the following data:
Machine A
Machine B
Annual fixed cost (depreciation)
$140,000
$209,000
Variable cost per switch
0.90
0.55
Required:
1. Assume that machine A has not yet been purchased. What is the annual volume that would make the company indifferent between the two decision alternatives (i.e., purchasing and then using machine A to make the switches versus purchasing the switches from the outside vendor)?
2. Assume that machine A has already been purchased. Is it preferable to:
A) Use machine A to make the switches.
B) Purchase the switches from the external supplier.
3. Assume that machine A has already been purchased. At what annual volume level should Vista consider replacing machine A with machine B? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round UP your final answer to the nearest whole number.)
