Answer:

Differential cost = $4 per unit

Explanation:

For a make or buy decision the relevant cash flows include

  1. the differential variable of the two options
  2. savings from avoidable fixed costs associated with  internal production

Differential cost = internal cost - External purchase price

                    = 15- 11

                    = $4 per unit
