suppliers. the need for spare parts is 100,000, while the production report that is calculated to
produce the need for spare parts is as follows
PT ABC
Production Cost Repot
Cost Desc Total Cost per Unit (Rp) Total of 100.000 Unit (Rp)

Raw Material Cost 5 500.000

FOH Fixed 4 400.000

FOH 5 500.000

• PT. ABC received an offer from another company to purchase spare parts of the same
quality at a price of Rp. 25 per piece. Actions taken by the leadership of PT. ABC is
instructing its management accounting staff to conduct an analysis of the offer. From
the analysis carried out by the management accountant, the company's leadership can
make a decision to buy these spare parts or continue to produce their own.

• For example, in making this decision, the facilities to produce spare parts are considered
to remain idle if the alternative of buying from outside is chosen. In relation to this
problem, the cost information that needs to be considered is the unavoidable cost
which is the relevant cost.

• Although at first glance it is more profitable for PT. ABC to buy spare parts from outside,
because the purchase price from other companies (Rp.25 per piece) is lower by Rp.2
per piece when compared to making your own (Rp.27 per piece), but the basis of the
analysis is not so simple
