Market price of finished component to outsiders $32

Division Y
Sales price of finished product $45
Variable costs:
Division X (1 component @ $24) $24
Division Y
Assembly $9
Packaging $4
Total $13
Contribution margin per unit $5
Total contribution for 20,000 units $100,000
The variable costs of Division Y will be incurred whether it buys from Division X or from an outside supplier. If Division X is not at full capacity, what is the lowest transfer price at which it would be willing to sell to Division Y?
