Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Understanding the Scenario: The table compares the costs of four printing jobs performed by an "Internal Print Shop" versus three external vendors (Ace Printing, ABC Printing, and Printing, Inc.). Each vendor's pricing varies by print job type. The task is to evaluate whether outsourcing (hiring external vendors) is a reasonable alternative to keeping the work in-house. Key Considerations in Outsourcing: According to governmental accounting principles and budgeting practices outlined by the Association of Government Accountants (AGA), the decision to outsource should consider: Cost-effectiveness: Does outsourcing reduce costs without compromising quality or service delivery? Operational efficiency: Can outsourcing free up internal resources for other priorities? Comparative pricing: How do external vendor rates compare to internal costs for identical services? Analysis of the Print Jobs: Let’s break down the cost comparison for each print job: Zone Map: Internal cost = $4.23. Cheapest vendor = Printing, Inc., at $4.00. Outsourcing is cheaper for this job. Agenda Packet: Internal cost = $23.18. Cheapest vendor = Printing, Inc., at $22.00. Outsourcing is cheaper for this job. Budget Cover: Internal cost = $840.00. Cheapest vendor = ABC Printing, at $624.30. Outsourcing is significantly cheaper for this job. Employee Benefit Brochure: Internal cost = $6.14. Cheapest vendor = ABC Printing, at $4.90.
