The fastening pins are sold for $0.70 each. Either design will serve equally well and will involve the same material and manufacturing cost except for the lathe and drill operations. Design A will require 12 hours of lathe time and 8 hours of drill time per 1000 units. The variable operating cost of the lathe including labor is $18.60 per hour. The variable cost of the drill including labor is $16.90 per hour. Finally, there is a sunk cost of $5000 for Design A and $9000 for Design B due to obsolete tooling. Which design should be adopted if 125000 units are sold each year and what is its annual savings over the other design?
