expect to incur total factory overhead costs of:

2) Ramon Corporation makes 18,000 units of part E44 each year. This part is used in
one of the company's products. The company's Accounting Department reports the
following costs of producing the part at this level of activity:
An outside supplier has offered to make and sell the part to the company for $23.30
each. If this offer is accepted, the supervisor's salary and all of the variable costs,
including direct labor, can be avoided. The special equipment used to make the part was
purchased many years ago and has no salvage value or other use. The allocated general
overhead represents fixed costs of the entire company. If the outside supplier's offer
were accepted, only $5,000 of these allocated general overhead costs would be avoided.
In addition, the space used to produce part E44 would be used to make more of one of
the company's other products, generating an additional segment margin of $21,000 per
year for that product.

part E44 from the outside supplier?
A) Net operating income would increase by $21,000 per year.
B) Net operating income would increase by $18,800 per year.
C) Net operating income would decrease by $123,000 per year.
D) Net operating income would decrease by $165,000 per year.
