  1. (TCO 5) Kirkland Company manufactures a part for use in its production of hats.  When 10,000 items are produced, the costs per unit are:
    Direct materials                                   $0.60
    Direct manufacturing labor                    3.00
    Variable manufacturing overhead           1.20
    Fixed manufacturing overhead               1.60
    Total                                                   $6.40
    Mike Company has offered to sell to Kirkland Company 10,000 units of the part for $6.00 per unit.  The plant facilities could be used to manufacture another item at a savings of $9,000 if Kirkland accepts the offer.  In addition, $1.00 per unit of fixed manufacturing overhead on the original item would be eliminated.
