Assuming that the MR Corporation has an inventory of 200 defective motors costing $450,000 to produce and $150,000 to repair, if the company receives an offer to purchase these motors for $325,000 before repairing them, the company's decision should be to sell the motors at the offered price.True / False.

Respuesta :

Answer: True

Explanation:

Here for calculation of the profit or loss the cost of production cannot be used for comparison as they are the sunk cost it cannot be used for taking sale or rework decision. It is given the proceeds from the sale of inventory would be $425,000 and the cost of rework will be $150,000.

Net proceeds from sale of units = 425000 - 150000

=$275,000

It is clear that these profits are lower than the sale of these units without repair. Sale proceeds without repair is $325,000. So MR corporation can make decision to sell the units without repair for better benefits.
