Legal assistants are duty bound to honor the same confidentiality rules as are their supervising lawyers. Likewise, legal assistants can learn client information without needing the client’s authorization,
because legal assistants are part of the legal team.

Telly Industries is a multiproduct company that currently manufactures 30,000 units of Part MR24 each month. The facilities now being used to produce Part MR24 have a fixed monthly cost of $150,000 and a capacity to produce 84,000 units per month. If Telly were to buy Part MR24 from an outside supplier, the facilities would be idle, but its fixed costs would continue at 40 percent of its present amount. The variable production costs of Part MR24 are $11 per unit.
