Outsource Tortillas Proposal: The company spent a total of $2,000,000 producing tortillas during the past year. The tortillas are made at a company owned facility. A vendor has offered to supply a similar quantity and grade of tortillas for $2,200,000. Staff recommends continuing to make tortillas because the proposed purchase price is 10% higher than the cost of making tortillas. Staff believes it is inappropriate to consider that the tortilla facility could be leased to another company for $350,000, if it is diverted from tortilla production.
