Question 8 CVP analysis

Sunset Ltd. manufactures and sells snorkelling gear. In 2011, the company hires anew manager who worked for an international company in China before. He tells theCEO that he knows a supplier in China who would produce the same snorkelling gear

as Sunset Ltd and sell it at an extremely low price. He suggests it would be muchmore profitable for Sunset Ltd. to buy the snorkelling gear at $40 and resell it insteadof manufacturing the gear. In fact, the cost for one purchased snorkelling gear ($40)equals the contribution margin per unit when manufacturing it ($40).

The new manager argues the decision to buy would be especially profitable, since thecompany is in need of a new machine for the manufacturing process, which costs$50,000 (useful life of 5 years and no salvage value). Manufacturing fixed costsamount to $100,000. Selling and administration costs have recently been up to$70,000.

The amount of snorkelling gear sold has constantly been around 15,000 units per year

in the past. For 2011, the company is expecting the same volume and also plans to setthe same price again ($70). The CEO asks you whether you also think that buyingsnorkelling gear instead of manufacturing it would be a good decision.

1. Help the CEO in making a decision by looking at the different impact on profitunder the two scenarios (buying versus manufacturing). (Note: Provide asuggestion for the CEO by looking at profit only; neglect any strategic reasonsor similar)
