b. $165,000 decrease

Explanation:

The total cost per year if Concierge Industries purchase the component outside is $510,000 ( = $12.75 x 40,000 components per year)

But Concierge Industries can rent its unused manufacturing facilities for $45,000 if it purchases the component from the outside supplier

So the income / loss if Concierge purchases the component from the outside supplier

= saving of manufacturing cost $300,000 + rental of $45,000 - $510,000 cost paid to outside supplier

= ($165,000)
