X Company currently buys a part from a supplier for $12.96 per unit but is considering making the part itself next year. This year, they purchased 3,300 units of this part; next year, they think they will need 3,800 units. Estimated costs to make the part are:

Per-Unit Total
Direct materials $3.57 $11,781
Direct labor 3.11 10,263
Variable overhead 3.90 12,870
Fixed overhead 4.70 15,510
Total $15.28 $50,424
