Nook Company currently produces a key part at a total cost of $280,000.  Annual variable costs are $205,000.  Of the annual fixed costs, $15,000 relate specifically to this part.  The remaining fixed costs are unavoidable.

Another manufacturer has offered to supply the part annually for $240,000.  The facilities currently used to manufacture the part could be used to manufacture a new product with an expected contribution margin of $70,000 per year.  Alternatively, the facilities could be rented out at $90,000 per year.  Given all of these alternatives, what is Nook Company’s lowest net relevant cost for the parts?
