Defective units as scrap or rebuilding


A company has the choice of either selling 600 defective units as scrap or rebuilding them. The company could sell the defective units as they are for $8.00 per unit. Alternatively, it could rebuild them with incremental costs of $2.00 per unit for materials, $2.00 per unit for labor, and $1.00 per unit for overhead, and then sell the rebuilt units for $16.00 each. What should the company do?
