    The minimum price is $78.98

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Monthly production costs for 1,080 units are as follows:

    Direct materials $ 41,000

    Direct labor 11,500

    Variable overhead costs 30,500

    Fixed overhead costs 23,000

    Total cost $ 106,000

    It is estimated that 10 % of the fixed overhead costs assigned to ACT31107 will no longer be incurred if the company purchases ACT31107 from the outside supplier.

    Unitary cost = (41,000 + 11,500 + 30,500) / 1,080 + (23,000*0.10) / 1080 = $76.85 + $2.13 = $78.98
