Cost of making the 27.000 units is 793.800 / Cost of buying the product is 1.161.000 / Net cost and revenues if the goods are bought 806.800

Explanation:

* In this case the cost of making the units can be calculated in this way

Unit cost * Units = 29.40 * 27.000 = 793.800

* the cost of buying them can be calculated in this way

unit cost * units = 27.000*43 = 1.161.000

* Since the statement said that there are two factors to take in mind derivative of the second option we have to add to the cost of good the cost of the fixed manufacturing overhead. since it said that it is 2/3 the formula is

Units * manufacturing overhead cost / 3*2 = 27.000*12/3*2 = 216.000

then to the total cost of buying add the manufacturing overhead cost that will be keep - the revenue for renting

1.161.000+216.000-570.200 = 806.800
